Tough Crowd
shes quiet at first
and doesn’t want to say too much,
I get her to crack a smile
and that just makes her tighten up,
I get her to laugh
and all the more does she put up a front,
attempting to deflect what ever I throw
I still hit it back, further busting her gut,
she regains her composure-goes stoned faced
and before leaving-looks me in the eyes, and says that she’s had enough
