on occasion
she sucked every bit of oxygen
out of the room crowded it with her
undaunted presence
and
that Overbearingness(if he would)
she didnt have
had she it would have favored her
unfortunately she sided with making nice
usually at her deficit
making damn sure everyone
else was lined up ahead of her
he couldnt turn her around or otherwise
when he needed her help then
she refused
Now when she comes around he finds
she wields it flawlessly
held confined
in a brisk steady hand
never occurs to him to
chide her
remark Its
about time
Time was no longer theirs
to play in
she came Now wholly
at her discretion a nonblinking Singularity
seeking him and he
it was his to Wait
until she came
he had no force to deliberately
invoke or provoke her presence
he had to sit
there and take her when she came
How
very Strange it is
how very strange she didnt have
it when having it would have been marvelous Then
pertinent
a
keen edge held to the throats of those who diminished her when she was here
before
she chose to leave
and now that she has it she wastes it on him
when he
was the one who adamantly tried
to take her by the shoulders firmly
and keep her at the front of the line
she didnt like it when he did it
he knew it
hed say
-- Thats too damn bad
curtly
because he was
done with the abuse they heaped on her
if he wasnt with her an outlier hed have been in their midst with mad fists
and sharp elbows before they knew what hit them
violence has its purpose
maybe a last resort
and they were due
they were long overdue
Too damn bad now
he supposed her breathless stops Now
harkened him
-- Thats too damn bad
