We'll be Fine

it doesn't matter what you've said to me,

who you are or who you think i am,

I'll be your friend if you dance with me,


in a room of bureaucrats ten, to be sure

in the middle of a great silence we'll interrupt,

without song, cue, or a single frikkin' clue

to jump and holler

and freak and snap


not for them, but for us

leaving the floor open for anyone who simply must,

and then sit right back down.


in complete silence,

watch it settle into their unanimous frown


i think, if you can do that,

we'll be just fine.
