Not Even L’esprit de L’escalier

It has happened again
Half of a conversation
Taking place far away from any interlocutor
Provoking rage at someone who
Was never even there
And would probably not say the things to which
Response was given

I feel pretty, and witty, and wise…

Bad enough
To realize what should have been said
Descending the staircase
So how much worse
To critique a party that nobody threw?
