A Sensitive Poem
My wife said write a sensitive poem
I don't even know what that means
I could always write about flatulence
Since I'm pretty partial to beans
Okay, here I go
Something sensitive for the masses
I'm guessing it has nothing to do
With those bean's invisible gasses
That four letter word that starts with an F
Yes, I'm talking about fear
People can get pretty sensitive
If they're standing anywhere near
I don't think this is what she meant
But it's as sensitive as I can be
And even while I'm writing this
She's sitting there staring at me
So I guess I'd better end this poem
Before the fighting starts
Who knew she'd be so sensitive
To a poem written about.....you know
