Hollow Wallow Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Too predictable.
That hollow wallow you want followed.
And sustained with someone else's,
Borrowed pain.
Bruised and battered,
You have not yet experienced...
To know and accept the rejection.

There are real people who have suffered,
With it done to have their voices hushed.
Faking to have your heart broken and crushed,
Is too much and too predictable...
That even Peter 'with' The Wolf,
Have become disgusted by your attempts...
To re-invent 'their' original act.
