Dogs 2020


PC Me(9/1/2020)
I have
found
silence
to be my
best
option
because
no matter
what
I say
no matter
the tone
no matter
the careful
deliberate
delivery
I am
very likely
to offend
someone
my most
sincere attempt
at flattery
may end
in contentious
argument
so I
nod
I shake
I smile
I frown
“asshole”
they say
to my back
as I leave
better
than bigot
racist
sexist
fascist
atheist
socialist
communist
homophobe
hate monger
in these
uncertain times
I’ll take asshole
any day
fuck them
fuck them
all
if they'll
only accept
a joke
