The Diplomatic Social Assassin
"Oh, hi.......and a good day to you, fellow traveler"
I then, re-burrowed my nose in my book,
seemed like an exceptional thing to do, at the time
I certainly didn't want to give him, the "look".
Coerced into riding the train into work
I didn't need some "nut" rattling on,
but he continued to yammer on endlessly
I made a point of letting him see me yawn.
No matter the topic, my thoughts were "suspect"
so, he kept arguing with me all along,
I came up with a comeback that shut him up, quick
I said, "I could agree with you..........but, then we'd both be wrong!"
