Take the Blame

Take the Blame

A Poem by Cherry Chapstick

You pour eleven ounces in an eight ounce cup
So you can douse the world of its flame.
You think you have control,
Act like you're all grown up
But instead you're story's the same.
I mop up the mess you make
So you can leave me be
Avoid the look, the pain
I've never been used to this 
It's so new--am I to blame?
