"DON`T CALL ME 'MADAM'!"

(25/12/00)


"Don`t call me madam"

She thundered in my ears

this is not the music

I wanted to hear.(for I was in tears)


"Madam"

Why was she so mad???

I only showed politeness

...my nature of keeping 'the above'

delighted

but on the way I must have prevaricated

for my uttering was highly

unappreciated.


Now,

I ask myself "What does 'Madam' mean?

...Take a dictionary?

and dig out the "whats" and the "ifs"?

No.

Too arduous of a trial

for my small simple mind

so to you my reader I leave

the quest and the denial.
