An Error and More

The others had gone to the store

CG squirmed like never before.

My brain is a hodgepodge

He sat coolly drinkin' his scotch.


I need to know

I can't let this go.


"Is there somethin' goin' on?

Somethn' you ain't tellin'?"


He looked at me and raised a brow

I continued out loud.


"The hammock, the shower...."


Wonderin' at his poker face

Invadin' his personal space.


I am a fool, should have know better

His earlier words, soundin' a decree

'Go don't bother me

write your newsletter.'


I got up and turned to leave

clenched my shirt sleeve

with gritted teeth

whispered breath


"She is kind and sweet

innocent at heart

don't you hurt her

or break her apart"


Nothin' else on the matter to say

I walked away.
