I’m not blaming you
for my eyes
seeing hearts
and my
temperature
off the charts
or for my muddled
mind
to which I have
resigned
and you’re not
at fault
for my tripping
feet or my sudden
desire to sing
at the top
of my lungs
for all to hear
without a drop
of fear
Then who’s
to blame
if not you
or me?
This is
unacceptable
for my
dignity!
