Touché (a poem)

Touché

Written April 23rd, 2011

Right in the middle of talk

You scream and run away

I look to see what made you balk

A tiny spider going about his day

I giggle at your silly fear

As I take him elsewhere

Only after you're certain it's clear

Do you rejoin me, still trembling from your scare

I pick on you and poke fun

You look at your feet, face red

Suddenly I scream and I'm on the run

The tables have been turned on me instead

You giggle at my greatest fear

As you swat the bee away

While my heart beats fast from it being near

I apologize and say; "Touché."
