the invitation to the party

my neighbor Becky,
who i despise,
invites me to her annual
Christmas party.
it's a beautiful hand written
invitation.
drinks, food, music, dancing,
gifts. let's celebrate
this most joyous season together
it says..
i'm stunned.
i've enjoyed so many
years in not liking
her, and now this.
how do i get around this?
how can i continue
not liking her if i go
to this party?
damn her. she's so devious.
