What can someone

Who reflects on the realization

That the father they idealized

Only obtained ownership

Because the mother they hated

Asked them to

**Be defeated by? **

What can someone be defeated by

If they look back on that

With gratitude anyway?

Can you conceive that,

Reader?

Can you conceive gratitude, somewhere

Somehow,

For life?

With the atrocities spurring you to your grave

With the unconscious pains from merely

Surviving

Death offers you relent

By asking you to tell it

**_To fuck itself_**

And find love somehow, someway too.
