Every time I hear you utter
Snort an exasperation
I notice my flinch
Tension
An arising desire
Fix, solve
Help it go
Somewhere
Outside of you or me
Thoughts roam
Across my forehead
What if
There is another way
Accepting vexations
Chagrin does not stay
When I see that part of you

Every time I hear you utter
Snort an exasperation
I notice my flinch
Tension
An arising desire
Fix, solve
Help it go
Somewhere
Outside of you or me
Thoughts roam
Across my forehead
What if
There is another way
Accepting vexations
Chagrin does not stay
When I see that part of you
Fixing, advising, listening, noticing feelings
