and of course
both in their stubborness
and refusal to give an inch
will shoot the messenger
who can do nothing but flinch.
It is so easy to allow
misinterpretation to fly
look for hidden meanings
perspective warped and lost.
Shot, the messenger shall die.
Ah well, and so hurt pride
shall flourish and grow
each in their own corner
refusal to see eye to eye
funny how misconstrued meanings
are theirs to plant and sow.
The messenger grows weary now
hangs head and
walks silently away.
If two cannot see what
what is just beneath their noses
then the messenger can do
nothing, she's had her say.
