Cliché
I don't want to be
a cliché
making desperate attempts
at individuality
like everybody else
does
Do we all think this?

Blanket
I'll knit myself a new blanket
of lies
and smother in it slowly.
A knitted blanket.
with plenty holes.
and many, many
clashing colours.
-just like the one you knitted me
