Call Gone Bad

Courtesy MS clip art gallery
a conversation began in good faith
a simple informational call meant for 5 minutes
turns accusatory and tense 
as faulty meaning is accorded my words
whoa! whoa! whoa! i say, surprised by this turn
i back up, my purpose explained with fresh clarity
as i wonder just how her day has been

  1. This reminds me of conversations I have had...
    And of all the eggshells I used to walk on - While I still dole out respect when due...I expect some back.
    Hope clarification cleared things up.

  2. Thanks Jules... The clarification helped, but it was a strange interchange all the same... :-)

  3. I've had similar in the last 48 hours... Must be the stars. :-)
