SO HERE IT IS.
WITH NO SPOKEN WORD OR MUMBLE
NO FLOWER ARRANGEMENTS
NOTHING TOO SENTIMENTAL.
AS COLOURFUL AS THEY MAY SEEM
NO HAND PAINTED CARDS
GLITTERED AND DECORATED.
OPAQUE TO YOU.
TRANSPARENT TO ME.
APPEARANCES MAKE OUR THOUGHTS DIFFER.
ARGUE AND RECOVER,
SO A PARTING GIFT,
AMBIGUOUS AND BAFFLING,
A CROSSWORD WITH NO CLUES,
ENIGMATIC AND PUZZLING,
THEORIES LITTER YOUR MIND.
EASIER TO THROW AWAY
THEN OVERDOSE ON IMPLICATIONS.
SO A PARTING GIFT
A FINAL WOUND, HEALS IN TIME
THE PARTING GIFT
NON RECYCLABLE, SLOWLY DEGRADABLE.

I love it.
I'm not sure I really understand it...I've come up with at least 5 things the Parting Gift could be and some of them are REALLY horrid!! And I like that. Every time I read it, with a new interpretation of what the Gift is it feels different. Excellently done. :D

Blimey, hits right home for me. Never mind the interpretation, that's mine.
Cool.
