Just before she left,
Lady Macbeth took care of everything.
She cleared out the pantry of its screeching colors.
Washed the fruit for constipation,
Arranged the black flowers.
And wrote her farewell letter:

Yes,
I’m not coming back
And I know I won’t.
I want you to know
That I loved you
With all my soul
And with all my strength.
You can’t imagine how much.
I tell you only for the last time
Because it seems as if you never knew.

I can’t take it anymore
Your aggression toward me
And your mental tortures.
Don’t look for me,
The restraining order is mandatory.
You can never be near me.
I will take my dog and cat with me,
They hate you too and won’t miss you.
