He'll spend
A longer time
In purgatory
For objectifying me

"Look At This Guy"

I stood out
From the patrons
I suppose

Because I walk
WIth my hiking sticks

I enjoy the support

I didn't say anything

In retrospect
I might have mouthed
"Look at this guy"

Back to him

The world is full
Of idiots like him

"Look at this guy"

Or "Look at this Jew"

Or "Look at this old woman"

I suppose he thought
It was strange
That I had two hiking poles

People walk with one
But I had two

Can't I just walk in peace
Without being objectified

So hard
To love everyone
So very hard

And I hope
That he is
Forgiven
For his multitude
Of sins

I am working on
Trying to forgive
A man I never met

Stay far away
Far away
From people

You will learn
Protect your fortress
With archers

They can shoot
Flaming arrows
To make these
Horrid people burn

"Look at this guy"

Yes, I must have appeared
So weak and frail

And look at you
You guy
You stupid guy
WIth no feelings
Or emotions
You "thing"

I can objectify you
Just as easily
As you can objectify me

If I do see you
In another realm
And you are rude again

I am not going to keep
Forgiving you
Sorry

I will close my fist
And smash your jaw

A broken jaw
Will teach you
Not to objectify others

You do not know me
And you hate me

I wanted no
Interaction
Yet you bothered me

With your rude comment

I hold you in disdain
And contempt

If you objectify me
Again in the Japanese gardens
I will be tempted to punch you
And smash your face right in
Life's pretty good if this is the worst thing that happens to me, lol
