This Is Just To Say

This Is Just To Say

A Poem by Grenouille Rousse
"

Prompt: What have you done? Write about it passive-agressively like William Carlos Williams' "This Is Just To Say"

"
On Christmas Eve
I stayed up
until 3am
knitting

Knitting for you
this scarf
as your gift.

But you broke away
with a well-thought
text message.

You added that
you didn't deserve
a gift
So I kept the scarf
for myself.
It keeps me warm.
