Preposterous
Do I accept the one I am,
or have come to believe I am,
or do I just watch how I happen
from an indeterminate position;
letting me happen
as I happen?
If someone says they forgive me,
I will easily counter
that they're not in a position to do that;
that they are preposterous
to assume they are,
and that I will never forgive them for it
I'm betraying the cat
by leaving
He's only got me, in a real, communicative sense
He shows that clearely, overwhelmingly
He may not live through my absence this time
He feels I'm about to leave, observes the back pack,
sees the suitcase being loaded,
and I have no way to explain to him
He just feels the pain
There is no one like him in my life,
no one like me in his
The world is giving a lot of examples
Who is it trying to impress?
