An Impromptu Private Composition 
Upon The Joyous Occasion Of My Return Gala


this dress
constrains
i stew
in pain
my stress
i do
not need
to feed
anew

at once
i'm hemmed
by gemmed
bouffants
can't flee
lest i
defy
propri-
ety

her grin
a sneer
i fear
it's in-
correct
that they
are here
to pay
respect

it's clear
they seek
to speak
with their
new liege
not me
only
my weak
prestige

i take
a bite
of tart
and fight
the shakes
my heart
hollow —

swallow

can't
swallow

must go
and find
some wine

No, no,
I'm fine.
