Sticks and Stones: A Debate Between Ex-Lovers (Volume 2)

Continuing Volume 2: What It Was Like

Cynthia:
did i not tell you they loathe me
they hate me
believed that beer bottles exist in my womb
instead of a mere boy
they spat at my back
as if i do not know
and rolled their eyes whilst they consoled me

do you here me, husband?

Danny:
woman, stop your wailing.
did i not tell you that life will be like this
but you believed otherwise
i am trapped in your web of lies
with a gun forever pointed to my face
do i not suffer also
i do not want to see what you want me to see

do you understand?
