I don't say "no" to those weaker than me
I don't say them with childish pleading looks
Who need play and love more than food
Nor to the sick who expect presence and beneficial touch
Nor to a cat or a rabbit who want communication
But I must know how to say NO to those for whom my time is
cheap goods of bfl-quality
I must know how to say NO to those who leave me in the middle of a conversation
as soon as another more interesting person appears (and they are all more interesting)
I must know how to say NO to bloodsuckers who suck blood from people
like a venipuncture needle in a laboratory or a tiger mosquito
I must know how to say NO to those who always speak with a negative connotation
I must know how to say NO to those who expect flattery for the sake of pumping their
vanity in the tubes of their mental imbalances
I must know how to say NO and NO and NO to everyone who is evil on the tip of their tongue and in the depths of their heart
I must know how to say NO to friends if I am convinced that they are wrong
even at the cost of losing them and remaining alone in the world
in the pack of hungry wolves
