Challenging Poetry

Okay

she said “D'accord,”
but she meant: all right
and I don't believe you
and you're not wise enough
nor do I care enough to attempt
to change your mind,
and I'm curious where you think
you're going to go with this folly,
and don't blame me, you're the one
who's making the biggest mistake
of your life, all with the flavor
of I told you so, or rather
I will tell you so in the fullness
of time, and with that single word,
the argument was settled,
and she sailed away with her lips
pursed against any further
flourish of meaning.
