A Puzzling Girl
All figured out.
Sunday paper
crossword puzzle.
My gestures are clues,
you're filling in
the space
between the lines
I never said
with your assumptions
and my lies.
But you were arrogant
and wrong
and filled the boxes in
with ink,
and now you're frustrated
and trapped
when you can't erase
what you used to think.
