Poem: Unwanted Guest.
Unwanted guest.
.
.
You could see their enjoyment,
This pair at a small table for two,
Whispering together and being alone.
The woman just sat down with them abruptly,
Too large for the space,
Stomach pushing against the table,
Unaware of the not welcome mat
Or the created exclusive intimacy bubble.
Obviously, the childlike direct innocent stare,
The deliberateness of stiff movement
All betraying an institutional background
Where nothing is ever exclusive to one person.
