Oh, Jeff... I love you too... but - read my message closer.

Oh Humility,

Joy everlasting—fucking fable,

Wishful, hopeful—yearning—

Died in dreich,

Yearning over unattainable Intimacy,

Left out—violently eviscerated,

Twosome—over, over,

Left out violently—eviscerated

Time heals... eventually?

I don't even agree

Because—unanimous terminus

Left out violently—eviscerated
