Proper Fences

--

Other people
do not matter
To me,
To be me.

It’s none of your business,
What I see.
It’s none of your business,
How I drink tea.

If I want to cut off my pinkie,
That’s on me:
Nothing to do with you,
Cuz it’s all about me.

It’s none of my business,
What you see,
If you paint your nails,
Or dress like a sissy.

Do what you will,
Just don’t involve me.
You can drive a hearse,
Alter your teeth,
Sleep in a coffin,
Drink black whiskey —

It’s got nothing to do with me.

You be you.
I be me.
Just build a fence,
So I don’t have to see.
