You're not the only ******* person
who can be peeved by minor indiscretion;
sometimes the flailing you do
disrupts others in ways.

Perhaps you feel vindictively justified,
but perhaps you just crucified
that image of you
that they held in their head
because what you do
can speak louder
than what you say,
and what you say
can be a sign
of why you do
what you do,
and how
and when,
too.
This is about no singular person.
It is an expression of a situation that can arise
anywhere with nearly anyone at any time.
