I wonder what I look like in your eyes

My need to know can euthanize

My jilted nerves postpone said exercise

I wouldn't get a word in edgewise

Don't be afraid, I say to self hoping to sterilize

A mind raised in a world prone to scandalize

They'd give you the rope and call ya streetwise

Implications shrink ya down to about half your size


After all it's the tell with no show that will demoralize

Words into ammo yet so grossly destabilized

Thoughts...
