Dear Jepsee,...
Jepsee, are you too deeply unoccupied
not to say my verse is the life-giving kind?
False hope is a serpent you know,
his venom none has ever apprehended.
He resembles the dandelion to wish on
when all is lost and at times might be,
but also might not!
Past encounters have only made me meagre,
yet now more than ever
I need to keep my remaining me in one whole,
optimism is a risky enterprise.
So I decide to take refuge in the dark,
and all is dealt with except you,
and I so hate you!
