A Glasgow Smile

I don’t think

I’m entirely blameless

I’m not that

Self absorbed

Or shameless

But it wasn’t my doing

Nor was it my fault

That things came to such

To an abrupt halt

I said some things

That were unkind

But in my defence

I had lost my mind

Whereas her behaviour

Had no justification

She practically revelled

In my flagellation

So when it comes

To my ‘tirades’

At least it’s with words

And not razor blades

---

The Tirade

Don’t stop me now

I’m on a roll

Saying my piece

Letting this shit go

It was you who did this to us

You see

You’re the arsehole here

Not me
