She spoke out of frustration
He turned away in investigation
Of the latest stats on the football match
And if the receiver actually made the catch
“Why do I even try?” She moaned
Answered by a familiar groan
“You know I’m watching my favorite game,
Why must every day be the same?”
“You act as if everything I say is blah”
She replied with a sorry frown on her maw.
“I’d be happy to listen on other days
But game day is my day to stray,
Away from my daily routine
A day just to watch my favorite teams,
A day to myself, is that too much to ask?”
She crumpled, “I didn’t know listening to me was a task.”
