Mine
Helen Janse van Rensburg
If it's mine
Then I want it back
I want to bleed it
And break it
And make it sob itself into sleep
They all say
It's mine
So I can do what I want
And if I want
I will tear it limb from limb
Scratch the soul from it
And leave it to rot in a black bag
And I want to
Because it is mine
And I will take it
It is mine
But it means nothing
It is mine
But it is empty like a wound
It was mine
But
I deserted it.
