Unfaithful (haiku collaboration)

by Trisha De Gracia

We lie as we lay
entwined in eachother, to
wait for forgiveness.

Our sins are to be
forgiven by god, so we
fuck nameless faces.

Commitment is dull
and tears go on unnoticed
evaported.

Sparks feed the fire
flames go on ever higher
to consume the whores.

Raw passion and lust
Love is unnecessary
morals, confining.

Corrupting our sons
it is killing our daughters
promiscuity.

The normalizing
the desensitization of
meaningless sex acts.

very potent. marvellous. and other words that say that it's probably the best poem i've read in a very long time.

This one hits me...so well done. I keep forgetting I'm reading haikus...often the most clumsy of poetry for some people this is almost flawless
