I have a suggestion. <br />If I get on your nerves, <br />And this makes you sick... <br />Why are you in my presence, <br />To make me aware of it? <br /> <br />You have more patience than I do. <br />And neither one of us are doctors. <br />You must be testing your tolerance? <br />And something in your mind, <br />Is addicted to self abuse. <br /> <br />And this is something you want me to notice, <br />That I provoke. <br />Right? <br />Give me a second. <br />I want to check to make sure, <br />I am carrying your medication. <br /> <br />Nope! <br />Once again... <br />You've caught me empty handed. <br />But I do recommend, <br />You scratch me off of your invitation list.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
