Buzzzzzzzzzz
Stop that!
No really, I can’t stand that
and you’re doing it again
just to get under my skin,
and it’s the only sort of pleasure
you could get from such a
passive aggressive display of disdain.
But I’m not listening,
I’m off
in my own little world
where I’m a bug flying through the sky
on wings of cellophane and wires
from seven notebook spirals,
and I can see through fifty different eyes
cuz that’s how many little shining circles
i was able to apply
before the glue ran dry.
You do that to me all the time,
use up all my supplies
on purpose
cuz you like make me cry.
That’s why you always take what’s mine
and use it up without asking if it’s fine.
You’re glaring at me through the window
while you run in circles
I’ve no time to figure out
what makes you pierce my gaze
with daggers from your own
cuz someone came into my room
and pulled out all my notebooks,
taking out the spirals
and leaving just the pages in a stack
I’ve got to put them back
before you think I made a mess
and make me fess up to taking
just a little bit here and there
a dab, a cut, a scribble
and then you’ll yell something about
the way I always do anything I can
to break your concentration, ruining your plan
to have a day where things go off without a hitch,
whatever that means.
You’re doing it again!
