Well-meaning people
make me so MAD
although this confession
confirms I’m a cad –
after all, they comfort
the sick, the depressed,
and many will claim
they’re our kind at its best
but I cringe when I see
a well-meaning smile
coming my way
and yes, it’s a trial
to sit down to share
Digestives and tea
with a well-meaning person
trying to mean well with me.
Please leave me alone –
go and find someone who
would welcome your well-
meaning Hi! How are you ?
