Oh Me, I'm Fine

Staring out.

Out at you.

Sitting over.

Over there.

Hear your laughing.

Sounds like

Cackling.

Oh, how it brings

Such despair.


See you reaching.

Ever reaching.

For the lighter

Or a match.

There’s your lover.

Ever present.

Such a catch.


Plumes of smoke.

Start their billow.

Shake my head.

We shared a pillow.


I’ve seen that car

That you’ve been driving.

Not shocked you have it.

With all your conniving.


Heard about

Your contemplating.

So glad to see

You’ve started dating.


Your hair looks different

And so’s your face

Erased all the ugly

Not a trace.


Don’t you think

Those jeans are tight?

Oh me, I’m fine.

I’ll be all right.
