Using My Own Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Using My Own



You can only occupy the space you've been given.
Use it.
Do with it as you wish.
Asking you to give me space,
Is...

'Asking you to give me space is...
What? '

Why would I want to do that?
Who gave it to you to use in the first place?

'No.
Not you...
Me.'

Why would you give me space?
I'm using my own.

'It was you that asked me the question.'

Why would I ask you for something I've taken?
