Honesty
Attrition:
Of words bounced off
me and on to you.
We aren't aren't saying playing
until we do. after.
We've crafted careful outs -
snarky innocents.
We are always right-

We all agree we are clever.
Your words bounce off me
and into your skull
like a bullet.
Pull the trigger.
But it's not about you.
