To Know Insecurity

by Nicole M. - Gemini

Insecurity is basically a pretty term to combine
   Pathetic and ignortant
Naive and soft
   Weak and unsure
We're leeches and blood letters
   Clawing and scraping
So close...smothering so much
We've gone right past what we're looking for...
trying to rip out a chunk of something   
     or someone else
And shoving it in the void, only out immune system can fix it's self
   Stuffing A into B and not knowing anything about rejection.
No matter how much we want to fill it
   We hide it frivolously
Because no matter how mutant and alienated we seem
We're ashamed of such repulsiveness.
To know insecurity
  You need to scoot over and let it live with you
Then have it exorcised and perform the autopsy.
