PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

a jealous mind is never long satisfied

so such a theory is constantly tested

yet only temporarily tried

it seems that low self esteem always wins hands down

over mutual trust denied

so then, where is it written how to get passed a harsh

accusation such as 'you lied!'

after all every response to that is almost guaranteed

to be indignant right from the start

the lark lies with keeping your eyes sorely trained on the

speaking person involved so you appear to them to be

playing your part

often one can sense the others rage begin boiling and

peaking

such dumb dramas are often played out in private two

man screening theaters throughout the country but more

than likely just a little ways down your street

domestic academy performances, sure shots for at least a

nomination to be argued in front of some official form of an

elected judicial seat

in a place where no one really wins but everyone involved loses

except for each parties' lawyer because his fee is

stated from the very beginning for it is one in which

he alone and up front chooses

its so ironic now not only have you gotten rid of the

argumentative one you once so dearly loved, your spouse

but as well you involuntarily got rid of the place where you dwell

your home your house.................
