that was a lame joke, shouldn’ta done that
you said cheery-eyed and a little too loud
you said rudely, in front of everyone, out loud
you came invading down the hall
a kid showing proudly your mess to parents
that you plotted the telling, that was apparent
you came screeching to a halt
stopping anxiously waiting for “what’s ups?”
uttering desperately, and fucking it up
you exited shortly after entry
damage was done, impression made
disappointed, but proud of what little you gave
