Do

What would you have me do? If I were free
Perhaps - I do not say for certain - I
Might offer you some hospitality
And with that maybe more. But don't ask why
I do not now; you ought to know. Don't lie,
The situation's just as clear to you
As it has been to me. I cannot try
(And do not promise, though you'd like me to
That I would if I could). What can I do
To make you satisfied, within those bounds?
If nothing, then you see my point of view:
It's just as irritating as it sounds.
Stop pestering me; live your life and let
Me live my own. That's all that you will get.
