Spurned

Spurned

by jeremy wyatt

Spurned, spurned
my fingers burned
all these years
nothing learned
caught out when
my back was turned
yet again my
stomach churned
all this treatment
was it earned?
All I did was
touch your belly
now I'm shaking
legs of jelly
got a smack
in the chops
sore face
tear drops
got my head
in a whirl
thank God you're
a cat and
not a girl!
