A hollow consolation
and the corrective stab
of reality sets in
when the days last drink
wears off in sobering light.
And all that’s left
is the sad realization
that she’s gone
and I’ve never given any thought
to our situation.
What went wrong?
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.
