I was told at a young age
that men hate profanity when used
by women.
It is unattractive,
and they can swear all they want because
they are guys.
I was told at a young age
to sit in the corner for saying
‘Hell’.
What the ****?
I was told at an older age
that it is offensive.
Profanity is offensive
when we are not using
it.
When we use it,
we feel better.
When we don’t use it,
we feel threatened.
Threatening is just
warning one to stop when
we know they won’t.
Walking down the street
on my way to the agora,
strangers tell strangers
to watch the language.
Profanity will either
please the crowd or
destroy a beautiful
situation.
Sorry,
I didn’t see the kids before I dropped something with
an F.
Not trying to teach them wrong
but I don’t want to learn from those
who try and threaten me.
Competing
over the role of the
wise one.
Lets just not say
anything.
