What does your wife think of Freud?  Just curious.  You can pm me the answer as to not muddle the thread (we muddle enough)

Putting in spoiler so no further muddle

Wife doesn't think a whole lot of him.

I kind of figured. Me either.

I kind of figured.  Me either.

"It has something to do", she says, "with his raging misogyny".

A trade of sorts

As I enter my crime scene
lifting up the plastic tape,
and wrapping it round her mouth
the gloom reveals
its still images, a map
inside a camera flash
for me to follow.

I cut the power, growing
more accustomed to the silence.
In every corner there is a wide
eyed darkness so thick,
I smear it on my
ashen naked flesh,
it can only be found in this room,
in this moment.
The layers bury
this wretched feeble body
from which I will be reborn.

I need the flowers
they smell sweeter
the closer we become,
a dozen red roses.

My collection starts
inside her warm torso,
the rib cage splayed,
practiced on pigs
with great success,
I face her west, in a white dress
and brunette wig,
we can be together now,
my first flower,
replaced by a wilting
black rose that falls
with my sweat as I work.
Only eleven more.
