Notes About The Poem

Unscathed

I was on a high
riding on a sunray
feeling the love

That seemed to bother you
so you had to go on the attack 
making a point to deflate my balloon

It annoyed you terribly
that I might be happy
you had to spew your venom 

I have news for you
I’m out of harm’s way
you cannot spit far enough
