None of Your Business

None of your business she said sweetly.
This shocked me as I thought it was.
Gracious shut down was done discreetly.
Other relatives more subtle than my Cuz.

I am amazed that the children always ask the adults "where did Mrs. Blah Blah Blah go?" as if we owe them an explanation when a teacher leaves the room. I usually say "that is adult business," but I cannot tell you how many times they keep asking.

I have been on both sides of that aisle - sometimes I pretend I was talking about something else-

I simply do not care. I know too much about people already. Some of it I would rather forget.
