LAME EXCUSE

I suggested to a lady who seemed locked in
that she get out of her house and take walks.

She countered that she is scared of falling.
I countered that she get herself a cane.

She laughed and said, “Me with a cane?
Impossible! Didn’t you know? I’m so vain?”

Well, I hope if you happen to read this,
you'll think this poem is about you. It is.
