Humiliation is the greater pain,
you think you can prevent it –
or at least decline its sentiment
by cautious deeds; you creep up
to the moment shifty eyed and
tensed. It doesn’t need a better
plan, you think. And wham,
you’re snookered once again.
In the larger schemes of mice
and men (and grown women)
you’re a mess – and the less
that’s said about it would be
best!
