For the most part
It’s the two of us
Myself and a demon
Whose name I won’t say
He’s not good company
In fact none at all
Absent is dialogue
Meaningful or otherwise
He has never been consoling
Not in the slightest
His body language
That of omission
Nothing physical
Only metaphysical
No tenderness
Only harsh neglect
Sometimes my demon
Invades a gathering
I won’t introduce him
I never say his name
