The Argument


A poem inspired by my day.

The Argument

Malicious,
the words seeped out,
creeped out of her raspberry lips.
Lies,
the words formed,
de-formed on her spit covered tips.
Bitter,
every pore in her body expels,
repels, urges me to leave.
Friendship,
can anything be saved?
it's hard to conceive.

Re: The Argument


Was the transition from 3rd person to 1st intentional?

Re: The Argument


It's all in the first person Liz emoticon The first woman mentioned is another person - the person who the poem is about.
