POETIC PROMINENCE

 

A couple

of the guys

ask me

 

“Who was that girl

that dropped you off

at work

at 7:00 in the morning?

 

And, uh, that was Jamie,

a 21 year old junior

at the U of Penn

 

Poetic prominence

on the rise

I must be

becoming an important poet

cause now

I’m getting Ivy League tail
