uninvited

flee from my memory
you are now uninvited
unwelcome
I only asked you in to visit
I didn’t say you could put your feet up
all the while making requests of me
in my house
that I have not the heart
to resist
it is brutal to settle into soft places
comfortable and safe
all the while being cruel and dismissive
as you ask for implicit trust
take what you need and go
you are not worthy
of this sacred space
any longer
