Rejection
The dusts have my faith in you sagged,
Simply on fake comradeship dragged;
Everything now A Big Fool’s Risk,
Smiling back A Big Asterisk…
Chats which last week smoothed my brow
Now what I fear could yield a row
With the effortless speed of Ease
Or A Morning Wind’s generous breeze:
A host about which I would boast,
Your released glass of water toast,
Now someone to The Worst wish
And make sure I ate not his dish…
Try I do to reject a friend,
When sure I am it is the end;
The Dusts have barred a thousand things,
The Marred away flown with wrecked wings.
Not sure in what light I’m taken,
Benefit of doubt much shaken,
No waiting for Mending Angel
It might be a waiting for jail.
