"I see how it is." (poem, free verse) January 6th

(Inspired by my own experience, unfortunately.)

I see how it is.

I'm not wanted, I understand.

I know, you'll smile to my face.

Your smile is fake.

You like your little circles, right?

Like things the way they are.

Ok, I'll play your little game.

I'll stay out of your way.

You keep your perfect friends in your perfect world.

I'm sorry to intrude.

'Cause I'm not perfect, guess I'm not good enough for you.

So go on! Keep doing what you're doing.

Politely ignoring me.
