An irascible response to unrequited lus.. love.

Po Faced

This is no place to be
With the sun beating down on me
I’m thirsty jeez, give me whisky please
But, no ice and no repartee

There’s power in the words you said
You’ve got muscles in your head
You’ve got a savage tongue for one so young
You talk like an exocet

You said you were looking to me
But you were looking through me
Like you never knew me

I know that you’re no man’s fool
You live by no man’s rules
You need a man to hate to feel emancipated
Po-faced and cruel

It took half a century
Finally for me to see
There is more grace in outer space
And this is no place to be
