I want your jealousy

Part I

Feeling jealous

is not a bad thing
it’s unnatural 
not to be
and fucked up
to stuff it down

It finds us

when love is sleeping
a love we don’t use
but got used to keeping

Afraid of jealousy

is the most dangerous place to be
there, spells it casts
fits enraged
vibrate us violently
vengeance to spite the pain
destroy our destiny
this fear OF jealousy fulfils
fury burns out
deadly our eyes
we kill love with our minds


we kill love with our minds


We fall in love, love falls asleep 

biologically aware are we 
made with eyes green to be 
safe 
leaving, a fuse that's MADE to flip
for love life's reaping


It's no immortal thing

nor easy, as no baby is
to be kept fed and clean
every minute

Complacency needs us being

bound to coveting
that forces action
who sets the stage
for great romancing
to act in love or rage
is what defines our play
plays our song
sings our daily legacy

choosing to awaken

or fall in hate's activity
is what we need 
to be controlling of

Being controlling

is also not a bad thing



Part II



Jealousy loves a hiding place

when feared, shoved down, denied
it festers out of grace
roots in arteries, and residing
warps the blood
to pump hate's fire

Jealousy is a busy raccoon

a deer prancing through
flies never satisfied
pup begging for food
a rodent who scurries through nights
Butterfly seeking some nectar 
a pest, with a right to be

Asking simply, to eat 

and honour the fruit of love
if you’re done with it
when have your blinders kept them at bay?
When did smashing a Butterfly
save the day?

The worthy challenge

and thing to be hunted 
is jealousy enduring
without killing the beloved



Part III



When jealousy is what you love

strokes you like a cat triumphant
purposely you stir the pot
in hearts prevailing love,
showering affection 
it's more fucked up

When love isn’t 

what you really want
you hate yourself
cause that’s all you know of love
you are that
who was fed and cleaned
and never loved enough
sweet baby
I’m sorry
but this 
I can’t be jealous of
