C. S. Phoenix - Peachy Keen

When people ask me
How are you
I respond by saying
Peachy

It's not that my life is peachy keen
Or that I'm always optimistic
It's because no one wants to hear
It's been a rough go, but I'm still trying
Or
I barely got out of bed today
Trust me, I've tried those
They say, That's nice, and walk on
Because they don't ask to know
They ask out of polite compulsion
I say, Peachy
Because it is a non-answer
To the non-question people ask

When I ask, How are you doing
I genuinely want to know
And when you reply, Peachy
I don't believe you
