imprudent

i had a fight with prudence.
(the stronger will prevailed.)
she said that i was out of line.
i admitted that i failed

to care about her strictures
and all her silly rules.
"you are not the boss of me!"
alas, i am a fool

to think that she would listen,
or that my words held sway.
yes, i went against dear prudence
when i outside today.
