That’s a look he knows well enough
even worn on a woman like her
that has an extraordinary poker-face,
it’s clear as day that she’s hiding just
who exactly she is underneath
the facade.
“Bet y’make generous donations, in large sums
just abou’ every year.”
The most irritating part is the fact
that he's right. She crosses her arms,
fingers loosely wrapped around them.
She lies for the sake of lying.
For the sake of not admitting
he’s right in the first place.
"Well, you’d lose that bet.“
