That Girl

That Girl

a poem about mania

remember that day
when you opened
up the closet
and found yourself
choosing brightly
colored clothing
and you put on
that hat
that made you 
look like
a country girl

 

soon you
called up
a cab
and took a ride
without paying
then you went on
parading your clothes
in front of 
glass doors

 

what a silly
sight you were

 

who was that girl
do you know her
and will you
ever see her
again

 

who knows

 

but if you
find yourself
choosing brightly
colored clothing
ever again
just remember
a few dollars
next time
to pay the cab

 

Until next time, stay safe, and be blessed!
