By The Way Poem by Martin Lochner

here is beauty in being hurt.

that great luxurious feeling of a real devastating loss



the painful pleasure to contemplate it.

some acquired taste is required to enjoy

that ivy nectar that all dread or avoid. a

bit of whiskey or sedatives dilute the power of that sharp clear ache.....

keep it sober and cry a little bit or wallow a little bit in self pity.......

But never ever be a self hater!

by the way...damn the one that hurt you
