How does she do it, Hopkins,
so much bile and hate
in one mealy mouthed squished
heart. I would
ignore her but she refuses to go away
as I was taught at school
and home
that if you give no quarter to the verbal
spouting gob talking shit bully
they disappear long
into the night, their shadow blissfully forgotten.
If only there was a way to lose you.
