Palliate the Cruelness

Stephanie Alford

Copious historical anecdotes

Mark the subject

For our disquisitions

Personal invective too witty

But only to you

Such denunciatory words

Spoken so harshly

I know it is your wish

To proselytize me completely

Only to no avail

I stay firm in my opinions

Not to be swayed

Your own opinions

Blatantly contravene mine

The constant antagonization

Has become some sort of leitmotif

My mind remains my sanctum

Away from your condescending remarks
