THE  BACK  OF  YOU

Be careful when you find yourself

wanting to see the back of another -

when you want this other to disappear,

so you can have it all to yourself.

Surprise! It’s  then you might discover -

when this other is long gone - it’s you

who are the problem. It’s you, you have

to face - without anyone else to blame.
