I Wasn't Lying

"For every lover is another lie"

Your words

You could have had the decency
To know I'd read your fag poetry

SO HERE'S MINE

There was no lie in my lips

No deceit in my words

Nothing but trust in my thrust

I still think about the 'lies' we shared

Still wish I had you in my bed

Then I think of the words you wrote

The coldness unfolds

And I am no longer certain that I love you

Hey Born in the 90's, I just had this idea for a series of photographs yesterday and they kind of relate to this poem. Inspirational!

About Mixtape

Mixtape is a blog run (loosely) by Linda Stupart as a manifestation of a project in which she collaborates with a large group of smart, interesting, wonderful cultural producers. As such, Mixtape documents these collaborations. More than that, though, the blog serves as a space for each member of the project to post whatever they like: Tell us what they’re making, thinking, doing or, even, feeling. The blog also forms a space for Linda, a Cape Town based critic, artist, feminist, WWE fan and cultural commentator, to post her writing.
