"That is so like you," she said


She was commenting on my metaphors
making comparisons to things
that aren't similar

How I tried to communicate feelings
with association
by attaching meaning to objects

She shook her head
frustrated at my need to obscure intent
when direct words would be simpler

but that is not how I am
not how we talk
and not how life is
