How much do you think I write? It's more.
I have an entire cast of characters,
A few more Fiery than the others,
From my interlude with a nameless hipster
To the immortal Little Belle the Impaler,
But the one wasn't about you; the other, neither.
They are just ideas. People live more loudly,
Appealing in their thickness, softness, flexibility.
Ideas hibernate, alone and unloved in a crowded mind,
While people have the good fortune to die.
Okay, I admit it. That poem may have been an idea of you.
I suppose I owe you an apology, and my idea, too.
This is fantastic. :D
ReplyDeleteThank you. I think the "I've always wanted to write a poem called" may become a series, like "My Personal World" and "Why I Write".
