the impostor

Of course I am pissed
but in the spirit of Christmas
I will take the high road
and offer you goodwill
in exchange for the havoc
on me you have wreaked

for pretending to be
somebody you’re not
for lingering long enough
to break the rules
but not to pick up the pieces
I bid you peace

for dressing up the truth
with guile and warped logic
for lacking the decency
to set the record straight
I forgive

for excusing yourself from
the standards you apply to others
for defining moral
as it serves your purpose
I give you the benefit of the doubt

for calling out the pretense
and professing to keep your distance
I say, thank you
so long
stay there

I hope you reap the benefit
of your good choices,
be given grace for the bad ones

thank you for the lessons
thank you for the times
have a nice life, you jerk

    looks like you’re really having a bad day.. have some chocolate girl, and wish the impostor you are referring to here will be convicted by the Holy Spirit. Let Him take control, He’ll take care of it better than you ever can!
