Offended

There's a guy at work who's easy to offend
Acts like a woman can't seem to mend
Edgar takes my side and that drives him mad
Stopped riding with us to the gym which is sad
We wish he'd lighten up and see we're all friends
Not every word is a message thats meant to offend

Where you from a question he can't stand
Turns it racial a line in the sand
Every comment is treated like a blow
His anger and tears are a daily show

He makes little things huge no peace to be found
Turns simple chats into battlegrounds
Sensitive and wary always on guard
Navigating his moods it sure is hard
Every joke every laugh seems to strike a nerve
Leaving us walking on a fragile curve

Where you from a question he can't stand
Turns it racial a line in the sand
Every comment is treated like a blow
His anger and tears are a daily show

At the gym he works alone avoiding our crew
Our friendly teasing he misconstrues
Quick to see slights where none exist
Turning every conversation into a twist
We've tried to include him to make him feel right
But his temper flares turning day into night

It's tough to relate to find common ground
When he's always looking for something profound
If he invites you to tacos and tequila you better go
He wont talk to you for a week if you say no
It's a strain on the team this constant fight
Trying to avoid setting off his woke ass spite

Where you from a question he can't stand
Turns it racial a line in the sand
Every comment is treated like a blow
His anger and tears are a daily show

We share the same space the same daily grind
But his fragile heart is a constant bind
But still we hope that one day he'll see
Not every comment's an enemy
So we'll tread lightly though it's wearing thin
Hoping one day he'll let us in
