I know, the quill drips green ink
and you get this look on your face
that says, I understand. I go there.
They say don't go there.
I go there.

I want to be loved and adored
by poets everywhere, but I seldom
publish anymore and the poets
are writing, too busy to read
this inconspicuous and invisibile.
I write it down and hope
someone looks it up.

When I'm dead, poets in the year
2029 will discover my work and say
things like, "How come I just
heard about her?" The reasons
are bountiful and exclusive.
Thanks Poetry
Magazine. It feels good
to be forgotten.
