People like you don't apologize
you actively choose to look distracted
to avoid the questioning eyes
that know you're wrong
and still wait patiently
like children
People like you change the subject
to stay entertained
Have diplomatic gestures
and dirty hands
People like you Are so busy lately
and waste everyone's time with their problems smaller than the listeners
People like you have contingency plans for intimacy
keep people that perform favours on speed dial
are productive and ambivalent like engines
People like you consider themselves the standard
that their opinions are the measurement tape requirements
when no one is even growing in their direction
People like you can run down a city
with the baggage they drag through homes and hands
You know who you are
you actively choose to look distracted
to avoid the questioning eyes
that know you're wrong
and still wait patiently
