Saving Me

Whiners, complainers, blow hards.
I stay away from them.
Make an excuse
When I see them
Inching toward
Me

Some try to sit
Next to me at meetings
Demanding attention.
Everything is bad.
People have wronged them.
Their life is nothing but
Terrible.

Occasionally I listen,
But more often than not,
I move seats
Without an excuse
Because social norms
No longer have a place in my
Life.

I am all about delighting myself.
