Resolution

The Art of Being Rejected

I said you can’t order me
What you’re doing is wrong
Think I’ll move on
He didn’t hiss
Just stood erect
like a good soldier

The meaning is not distant
I mastered rejection
The armory was tepid

I do not fear the universe
I guess I’m too self-enclosed
I know too much to gamble

He just remained silent
No
I think I left him speechless
I think that’s true
I have no idea
I still don’t know why I did it

My vagueness means…
some peace of mind
