    it's not like there's a reason
    for the tightness
    in your chest
    for the slick pathetic lies
    and excuses
    you digress

    it's not like there's a need
    a karmic right
    for you to me
    or the trite and faded heat
    of grabbed marked hips
    so sutured we

    cannot see the ringworm
    softly eat us both
    alive
    or the whiskey sting of ease
    at a barely concealed
    lie
    and the short bad-tempered breath
    clinging skin and cracking
    hives
    as we desperately grasp for the
    skill set to thrive
    alone

    I like the imagery your poem created in my head. You seemed angry in the poem, yet content.

    What is the background?
