Excluded
It hurts to be excluded
Even if you're feeling mixed
'Bout the venue that's reputed
To be one some people nixed.
For at least if you're included
You know someone seems to care
And it's not like you've intruded;
You're encouraged to be there.
Often motives are occluded
So conclusions may be reached,
But you're likely not deluded
When a courtesy is breached.
