HER SONG

She says

�I wrote something.

A song.

You can hear it

if you like.�

I think

and I wonder

and I ponder

what to do.

This creature

this girl before me

is one I want to know better

one I seek to discover untold layers of

and how better than through art?

But

I think

�Is she good?

Will she be good?

Will I be able to feign interest

in her idiot product

her inane ramble

her stupid stupid song?

How will I be her lover

if I can�t love

her song?�

And I think

and I wonder

and I ponder if I will

and I say

to her

�I would love to hear your song

and right away.�

And I do

and

I regret it

immensely.
