An over-reaction you’d say
not a prejudicial response
to motives mistaken – yet
there’s clear evidence it is
explained precisely in frank
admission you’re deaf; no
piecemeal sinecures ease
inclusion of a hearing aid
Yes, I’m hard of hearing –
a state of being unclear on
your discourse except for a
conversational agility which
makes it interesting unless
you have the ‘wood’ on me
