Misunderstandings

Don't smell me through ambushing ears
Don't listen to me with glaring eyes
Don't look at me in that tone of voice
Don't taste me with such rash fingers
Don't touch me with an insensitive mind
Don't perceive me through a shriveled nose

Because these sensations
Lead to effortless interpretations
