I do not blame you
left the door wide open
treats on the door step
clutter in the bedroom.
I basically asked you
told you to get the fuck out
I need you here
but I do not deserve you
you could be solving global warming
curing cancer
writing the next great manuscript
not worrying about what page I am on
did I send out those poems
did you pick up the dog from the groomers
(shit)
The world needs you
it would be selfish-
to keep that door closed
but, I will not close it behind you
selfish or not
I will watch you
rule this world
and I will write about it.
