I may not be all contented
but at least I can be alone
not roasted with my skin crackling by boredom
in the presence of a long-winded nerd who's cringing over enthusiasm brings out
the mildly grey abuse of power in me.
I curl up in the dark, alone.
But I will find contentment sometime within me.

I may not be all contented

in the presence of a long-winded nerd who's cringing over enthusiasm brings out
the mildly grey abuse of power in me.
I curl up in the dark, alone.
But I will find contentment sometime within me.
