...but feel free to pelt me with rotten eggs.
(sonnet #MMMMMMMDCCCXXX)
It's been an awful week for all I'd thence
Tried extra hard to be mair wise. In pale
Excuse I make mistakes each day and fail
At evrything. To play the ther'pist hence
And make myself recite in sheer defense
The bald facts I threw out, ignored to scale,
Nor but let folly triumph oer, t'avail
Me, did no good it seems, "wise" was pretense.
He never cared that I exist, I'm sure,
Though I could prove he did and does still too.
Twas all a lie he liked me, but in poor
'Scuse my heart swears he did. I know's not true.
So I trip oer my feet, distracted fer
No reason, cuz I "like" whom 'gain?...quite blue.

So, like I said, laugh at me.
