Where Does It End?
October 30, 2010
Here’s something ’introspectively confrontational’.
I.
I want.
I want to feel.
I want to feel you.
I want to always feel you.
I want (to always feel) you.
I want (to always feel) you want.
I want (to always feel) you wanting.
I want (to always feel) you wanting me.
I want (to always feel) you always wanting me.
I want (to always feel) you (always) wanting me.
I want (to always feel) you (always) wanting me to fulfill you.
I want (to always feel) you (always) wanting me to fulfill your wants.
I want (to always feel) you (always) wanting me to do what you want me to do.
I want (to always feel) you (always) wanting to make me do what you want me to do.
I want (to always feel) you (always) wanting to make me do what you tell me to do.
I want you to make me do what you tell me to do right now.
I just want you to tell me what to do.
Tell me what to do please.
Please love me.
Please show me you love me.
Please show me you do love me.
Please show me how much you love me.
Please show me (how much) you love and care about me.
Please show me (how much) you want to love and care about me.
Please show me (how much) you will love and will care about me.
Please show me (how much) you will want to love and care about me.
Please show me (how much) you will want to love and care about me by telling me what to do.
Please show me (how much) you want to love and care about me by telling me what to do now.
Please show me (how much) you love me and care about me and I’ll do what you tell me to do.
Show me (how much) you love me and care about me then I’ll do what you want me to do.
Show me you love me by demanding I obey then I’ll do what you want me to do.
Show me you love me by demanding I obey then I’ll do whatever you want.
When you love me by demanding I obey then I’ll do whatever you want.
When you demand me, you love me, and I obey what you want.
When you command me, you love me, so I’m happy obeying you.
When you command me, you love me, so I obey you.
Since you love by commanding me, I obey.
Since you love commanding me, I obey.
You love command; I obey.
You command; I obey.
You command me.
You command.
You.

This put me in mind of an Elvis song I saw in one of his movies:
Do
Do you
Do you ever
Do you ever have
Do you ever have one
Do you ever have one of those days

I think Elvis had more levity and less introspection with “Didja’ Ever” from the motion picture “G.I. Blues” (which I’d never heard of before today).

Oh yeah it was didja and not do you -ha. He was a little before my time too – just remember seeing the film. I thought the song was sort of dorky and characaturistic of himself. but your poem definitely shows more inflectionthan his song.
