a simple suggestion
takes an ugly turn.
Hearing about
the arrogance
of a subordinate,
I persuade
the one at the helm
to tame the shrew.
The chief
reprimands him
in a mild way.
The receiver
retorts aloud
with impudence.
Hell breaks out,
The chief loses
temper.
He stares at me
blames me for
the mishap.
The evening becomes
unpleasant. I being
cursed all the time.
