"Could you name a shortcoming of yours?" and I stutter- I stop after nights of practice mindless rehearsing this should not be the question that turns me to a boulder hurls me off the cliff so I shatter while bystanders thank their lucky stars they weren't hit I've named thousands thanks to you but now the pain has muted me "I am shy" it's a lie
