I am the anti-confrontationalist,
hoping that this
will all just go away,
independent of any action on my part;
sometimes,
situations do have minds of their own.

I am the self-proclaimed
Queen of Passive-Aggression.

All hail me!

All hail me!

Spare me your trite complaints
and spare me your beggings of mercy
and spare me your open ears...
but only once you've spared me
those words to the wise
that you assume you're the first
to have spoken;
your linguistic stylings are nothing new
and, by choice, my hearing failed long ago.
