You & Your Dionysus

You & your Dionysus

Choose to exist as extreme opposites,

With your silent cold shoulders,

Or rowdy

       Raucous

          Ritual madness.

           As opposite as East and West

             Going far enough in one direction to

Turn into the other—

Making you both one in the same…

Two extreme natures to your personality,

From catatonic melancholia,

              To acrimonious bellicosity.

I would rather you abandon me,

To go live with your Dionysus,

& your self-pity,

Than to chastise me with your accusatory fallacies 
                                             and your monotonous  misconceptions.

—Let me just say; three is a crowd.
