Riposte

A quick riposte
Inelegant and unprepared
Has the grace of a rampaging elephant
Blundering
Running scared.

If you do want to engage me
Then do explain your problem
In words that have true meanings.

Shooting from the hip sweetie
Just makes me laugh then smile...

Show me some aplomb
Converse without the anger.
Use the words to explain yourself
As we all have to.
Your response was ever so poor
You know...
I thought you would do better.

Here's to your next three words.

night soul woman The PoetBay support member heart!
Aaah . .. I understand, when empathy turns to be sympathy and when friendship becomes like parenthood, indeed, a difficult situation, how should I react? The toughest question of all but each decision one make has to have the answer to this question: How should I react? it is not easy, indeed. . .

Well written, thought - provoking*applause*
