Floccinaucinihilipilification

When you were unfaithful
to your promises to me,
I told you in no uncertain syllables,
I need no empathy nor sympathy.

I simply said:
I flocci-
nauci-
nihili- 
pili-
ficated you.
You dumbly asked,

“Wha- uh, what do you mean?”

At first, I looked at you and said nothing.

You became more forceful in your demands.

This time I said, “NOTHING!”

You left, nothing in or on your mind.
