How could he have treated me so badly
Or was I looking at half the cards?
I think to manifest maturity
Requires stopping at "how".
Changing the other guy
Is so-o-o rewarding
But with little shelf life
And no meaningful expectation.
I assume the posture of an adult.
It does not become me,
Given my insistence
On asking others to do the lifting.
The pleasure of being right
Outweighs the desire to move forward.
Of course my book of hurts and outrages
Does not go back 500 years...yet.
You have not acknowledged my greeting,
Or laughed at my jokes.
You have denied my 2000 year old land claim.
In the next life you will get over this.
