Polite Society

Forgive my utter sarcasm!

Not because it is wrong,

But for the sake of your polite society,
As unreal as it often accuses

For it becomes exhausting,

When manners are mere methods

Of meaningless banter

And lame excuses;

And anti-social behaviour

That I need not be sorry for,

Given the multitude

Of attendant circumstances

By which I am compelled

To conduct myself falsely

And stiffly, for being

Appropriately dressed

So don't get me wrong

As some friends often do,

On this rarest 

Of rare occasions

When in justification

For things quite much known,

I have long since

Run out of good reasons

For being away 

Every possible way

When I'm able, 

I'm willing for reasons,

To be told that I'm

 Being too much of myself

In this tempers of

Ever changing seasons
