tried to be nice
they looked at him as if he had lice
boss liked people emotionally the size of mice
better think twice
that single vice with the dual consequences
less and less on the fences
more decisive in his nature
able to see through some of their vapor
grabbing and clamoring for some self meandering
it had been too long since cage bird did sing
sometimes through others he felt the sting
often we put ourselves on a shelf
stacked neatly between the has been and the ash tin
stuck dragging the ashes, not blinking eyelashes
caring enough to look without seeing
her freshly seething. him looking for a brief fling
Neither could tuck there head under the others wing
