Woman Named Glenda

Folder: 
Storytell'n

I went for a walk

and had a talk

with a woman named Glenda

she told me how her

ex-husband put her in

the streets

just because they disagreed

she said she'd been living

in the streets for quite

some years

by the look on her face

she has cried some tears

Glenda was only thirty eight

she looked twice that cuz her

body had begun to deteriorate

we sat and talked for a

little bit

and I gave her a couple of dollars

to fill her grip

I told her it was nice meeting

her and try to have a good day

and maybe we will meet again

around the way

Did you catch it? I did.... and I _______ her a couple...

There is always more behind the scenes but I feel...as I have read in a book once "No poet can give you his true poem. He does his best to convey something of its beauty, something of its life, but even then it is far removed from his ideal."
