thank you for letting me stay here. thank you for taking me in.
thank you for the beer and the food. thank you for loaning me bus fare.
thank you for showing me around, that was a very kind thing to do.
thank you for the use of the clean towel thank you for half of your bed,
we can sleep here like brother and sister, you said.
but you changed the rules, in an hour or two. I don't know what you
and your sisters do, but please don't, please stop, this is not my obligation
what does my body have to do with my gratitude?
And look at your little white lying, for the purpose of justifying
what you're trying to do. I know that you feel my resistance,
I know that you heard what I said, otherwise you wouldn't need the excuse.
thank you for letting me stay here. thank you for taking me in.
I don't know where else I would have turned. But I don't come and go
like a pop song that you can play incessantly and then forget when it's gone.
you can't write me off and you don't turn me on.
so don't change the rules in an hour or two. I don't know what you and your
sisters do but please don't, please stop. this is not my obligation.
what does my body have to do with my gratitude?
