Fuck you!”
He said it to me!
Me!
of all people,
Me!
and what I am and what I represent;

To him:
adult authority,
unsolicited rules,
unrepresented controls.

To me:
the person to give him a beter life than
he would have had without me.

To you:
The hope that somehow, the world will, at least,
continue turning.

“Fuck you”
and the intricate, labyrinthine, skeletal structure
of the uiverse cracks a bit,
a hair line crack compounded with all the other
cracks
until it all crumbles,
the universe,
civilization as we know it should be,
my ego.

It’s nothing personal, I understand.

It’s just, well,….

“Fuck you”.
