Have you seen her?
Tell me,
have you seen her?
The wild eyed goddess
dancing out of control,
mine.
I laugh,
snapping my fingers
and whistling Dixie.
Have you seen her?
Tell me,
have you seen her?
It’s the same sad tune
I’ve sung for years,
humming
and talking
of the lost years
left leaning on myself.
Have you seen her?
Tell me,
have you seen her?
There is resolution
in knowing at the very
least,
I have
known something,
if barely anything.
I have seen her.
Tell me,
have you seen her?
I am the best thing you've never heard of.
I hold a Bachelor's in English, History and Secondary Education, and a Master's in English: Creative Writing, though my appearance belies intelligence.
My goal in life is to write and to be read. It's a modest stretch by most imaginations.
To most I'm amazing.
It all depends on your definition of literary merit.
