Last Straw

Last Straw

Your mama says to not be mean,
don't ever make an ugly scene.

Just wait it out and hold it in,
tamp feelings down with facile grin.

We cannot cross a bridge that’s burned,
but grievance saved is grievance earned.

Then one last straw, surprise attack!
‘cuz wait will break a camel’s back.
