Floccinaucinihilipilification
When you were unfaithful
to your promises to me,
I told you in no uncertain syllables,
I need no empathy nor sympathy.
I simply said:
I flocci-
nauci-
nihili-
pili-
ficated you.
You dumbly asked,
“Wha- uh, what do you mean?”
At first, I looked at you and said nothing.
You became more forceful in your demands.
This time I said, “NOTHING!”
You left, nothing in or on your mind.
