Spoken for
from whose authority
You know that I am spoken for.
You’ve heard she speaks for me.
But I’ve a tongue to speak with, too.
Each tongue fulfills a need.
And my tongue can fill each of yours.
Just listen to me speak.
Then we’ll see who’s spoken for
from whose authority.


Quick and cheeky, like nope you don’t get to speak over me anymore. Small poem, big bite, and that last line really swings.
So wonderfully economical and cool ending!
