   Bully
   I see the line you’ve drawn at the edge of the playground.
   The one you’ve dared me not to cross.

   I see you waiting close by, pretending not to see me,
   Hoping I’ll venture closer.

   Wanting me to challenge you.

   Instead, I head the other way.
   Where blacktop-marked foursquares

   wait for feet to plant themselves inside.

   Even though I’m the only one on this end of things.
   I can make up games and friends and time.

   You do your evil over there.
   I’ll do my playing over here.

   Someone
   hid the button
   on me,
   words disguised
   as instructions.
   No, I won’t
   hit to play —
   not tomorrow
   not today.
