---+++ To my tumor

I want you out of my life.<br />Like a divorce — only forever and a day.<br />They didn’t make words with enough force<br />To eject you into the nethers of beyond<br />But if they did, I’d excavate each one<br />And apply them here<br /><br />No, worse than that…<br />Things that can’t be imagined<br />The kinds of things that nightmares have nightmares of<br />(if they did, which they should)<br />I don’t want you to simply dry up and blow away<br />I want you goner than that<br /><br />I want to reach into the depths of prehistory<br />And erase your timeline<br />Starting forever before the Big Bang<br />So that you aren’t now, never were<br />And will never be<br />For every ever.<br />-- %USERSIG{JMagGuthrie - 2018-01-09}%
