LUMP



LUMP

Whatever course I go on
you are always there.
You are
'LUMP'
usually female but not always
you are the immovable object 
you are the bulldog chewing a wasp
I was really looking forward to this one
I had forgotten about you
but you must have followed me from the last one
like shit to a blanket
you are there
impassive
resentful
but
important
and perhaps because I do not recognise you as such
it infuriates you all the more.
but because Carl said
"Everything that irritates us about others can lead to an understanding of ourselves"
then perhaps it is I 
who is the
 'LUMP'
and I apologise 
but not
unreservedly
