She was bright
When she said she was right
“You need no fright
Because coupling makes life light”
And my mind went quiet because I needed no fight
It was her time and I needed her bright
But now she sings like an owl, after three stone throws, her pained songs to me
After her forever after never turned to be
CHORUS
Please Ceci don’t be a fool
Choose no one who’ll use you as a tool
After using you like a bull
He will sit on you like a stool
Get a donor and create a whole
So you don’t end up in a smoking hole
II
My heart breaks in pieces
Seeing the breakage of her peaces
How happy she was telling me and her nieces
How only the jealous does the hisses
Now she hisses
Cursing the kisses
Saying it was blinding
When she turns to me, my heart is grinding
CHORUS
Please Ceci don’t be a fool
Choose no one who’ll use you as a tool
After using you like a bull
He will sit on you like a stool
Get a donor and create a whole
So you don’t end up in a smoking hole
III
What sours great coupling?
What cripples their soaring?
What are the ingredients so damaging
As to taint their experiencing?
I hate her singing
I hate to see her heart hanging
I hate her whining
When she sings in advising
Â
CHORUS
Please Ceci don’t be a fool
Choose no one who’ll use you as a tool
After using you like a bull
He will sit on you like a stool
Get a donor and create a whole
So you don’t end up in a smoking hole
IV
I know now it is true
Flyers know the speed of the air
They are the taken who have faced them square
So sent in brute directions, they tend to be brute
Turned to right directions, they tend to be cool
So I am listening and lip-biting
Knowing it might cool off when another pleasure storm sets in
For now I will listen to her cruel song
CHORUS
Please Ceci don’t be a fool
Choose no one who’ll use you as a tool
After using you like a bull
He will sit on you like a stool
Get a donor and create a whole
So you don’t end up in a smoking hole

One of the most painful things I have ever been through is watching my sister’s marriages degrade and become toxic to them. Their pain was felt as if it were my own. I wept many a tear for them and my nieces and nephews. When love turns poisonous it ravages all connected to the broken couple including the couple. It is a very tortuous event to witness but so much more vile if you are the couple or the children of the couple. Of course, it is the children who suffer profoundly. My own parents dragged us through a toxic, vindictive divorce so I know well the long term negative effect it has upon the kiddos. This is a great poem of strength with wonderful imagery. Thanks for sharing it Cecilia.
