Revenge

I want you gone from me.
I want to shape you as a monster, remaking you into lesser desire.
I want to feel your skin on mine as much as it tears me to think it.
I want peace in my heart as much as love in my body.
No compartment holds this, the whim which won’t be banished;
There is no proper storage for lifeblood without mending.
Intrusions in my days—
Change light from Port Talbot to Salerno.
May summer never set.
