An Embarrassing Moment
a neighbour takes umbrage
at his own narrowness
then vents rage
on us who so witnessed
momentary flicker of flame
there is no judgment and yet
the aspect that so clings
assumes ownership
quite delusional of course
and therein lies the dilemma
we opt to be still
fanning not the fire
