Says Her
She said she was proud of me,
exhaustingly so.
Though I'm used to only being exhausting
for being a pain in the ass.
I guess I'm not used to pride,
just busting my ass
to get somewhere other than here.
I'm glad someone noticed.
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.
