Haiku Interlude: For those who have shared my body 

Ex, 1 
What a tremendous  
mind fuck it is, to love, love, 
love, and to be loved.  
 
Ex, 2 
I am glad you are 
Locked up to keep me safe, sane,  
Defusing what was. 
 
Ex, 3 
It wasn’t hard to  
get over you, because I 
I am not in love. 
 
Ex, 4 
Quite tall, with square jaw 
Your penis is so tiny 
Dragon girl ... ha ha. 
 
Ex, 5 
Bowl haircut you will 
Always be special to me, 
As I am to you. 
 
Ex, 6 
A divorced woman 
Is like a used car, you said. 
Insecure man-child. 
 
Ex, 7 
Careless moment, lust 
But it goes deeper than that. 
You should be careful.  
 
Ex, 8 
Don’t say you ruined  
my life, because you are not  
that significant. 
 
Ex, 9 
If she ever dies, 
I’ll totally take you back, 
For purgatory. 
 
Ex, 10 
We can make love for 
Old time’s sake, and for new time’s 
Scarcity and grace. 
 
Ex, 11 
I do wish we could  
have lived like the little house  
on a red prairie. 
 
Ex, 12 
Any one of you 
It could have been, but it is 
What is yet to come.
