Jealousy

She pointed her eyes at the photo and squelched my hopes with just four words "good luck with that" I was planning on turning it into a masterpiece but she made it look like I had just crapped on it Too bad I didn't see her shade of green, nor how she was so mean.

Green is my favorite color, so I wish it wasn't used for jealousy! But I enjoyed this, finding it a bit - spunky!
