--   Finessed

                                                                                                                      

unconsciously he nearly flinched      it gave way to irritation

he rolled his eyes

fuckin ludicrous

--   Wha

--   Finessed

--   You said finessed

--   Yeah

--   I didnt say thatwhy would I say that

You ever know me to be finessed

have finesse

--   No

I thought thats what you said

--   Finished

--   Didnt hear ya correct then

--   I said finished

--   They worked on you pretty hard

--   Pretty hard by your standards then

--   My standards  Are you knocking my standards

--   You equating you to me

You aint me I aint you

I think someone might blow smoke up your ass  and youd be particular to it

--   Maybe so

But then I aint a prick most the time

--   And I am

Finesse

Not in my makeup

Its an excuse 

                                                                                                                          

Think

When I fuck up I own my fuck ups

Theyre my fault

--  Yes

But you dont take the lead you dont follow

--   I dont

You know that about me 

 

Aint nothing new

Ya threw me with your finesse comment

--  Youre not likeable

--   Dont imagine I am

But that comes without caring one way or another about it

--   Everybody wants to be liked

--   Thats their Achilles

They think its their door in

Into what  

                they dont think

--   And you arent curious

--   I got too much to do for me to be curious about what someone thinks they can do for me

Its a line

Its a line  a hook line and sinker

Uninterested

--   Uninterested

Not curious

Inhuman

he smiled

--   Cut me I bleed 

But you better start running

--   Why are you like this

--   Lets examine finesse awright

Its about eluding

                             sidestepping 

I think essential

if youre a matador

Youre a spook

I prefer black and blue

split knuckles  eyebrows    

                                          cheeks 

a banged-on jaw not wanting to move to talk

Let thoughts stew awhile

                                          marinate

really work through them before opening your mouth like a stinking flytrap

flapping to flap

Finesse ought to be used as a last resort

Otherwise

Be a brick wall

Stand upright for something

Theres more to stand for than you think

--   And youre this way  why  

--   For more reasons than I have time to languish over   Suffice to say I determined it a long time ago

It provided me few friends

But then
it provided me your friendship

However tortured  huh

--   You took the words right out of my mouth
