No Compromise
"Paul's Explicate My Poem Unofficial Challenge"
"Hey, I get it!"
You don't get shit!
My life, who I am,
My beliefs, no lies, no sham!
~
My job is to live my truth
I am not trying to be uncouth
or even disagree with you
I love you Boo!
~
I am willing to move on
I am moving on, no con
NO negotiation
No compromise
~
Then a promise
Of more poetry from me
Poetry is fun and can be
a standalone you see.
~
Whether you like it or not
does not matter you snot
Uncomfortable, okay
I will do it anyway.
~
Today is easy for me
to be all that I can be
My truth matters
I do not mean to shatter
your picture of the we!
