A poem written July 11, 2006

Morning Bitch
by this Elizabeth

If you don't want
a morning bitch
put the pizza
in the fridge
get in bed
at a decent time
and don't act like
the fault's all mine.

If you don't care
to hear my stress
don't lay back down
after you dress
but put on tea
or load the dishes
and give me something
besides just wishes

If you don't like
my attitude
don't waste my money
or my food
and don't act like
I ask too much
unless you want
a big ole fuss

Don't tell me you
can't read my mind
or tell me 'bout
all the lights you find
'stead take my hand
and at least lie
and promise you'll
some effort ply.
