NOSTALGIA ACT
Aren’t you that
Poet who was famous
Once?
That poet
Who lived
Downtown
That wore
That old leather
Jacket & who
Was kinda like
A punk rock vampire
Lord Byron meets
Edgar Allan Poe
Guy?
I really liked
That poem you
Wrote the young millennial
Girl says
It was totally awesome
My mom has the book
Thank you
Which one?
I inquire
You know
That one about
Dying without her
Love & sadness
Loss & self
Destruction
That one
Y’know
“Come As You Are”
I smile
Take a sip of my
Coffee, excuse myself
From the room
~ R.M. Engelhardt/19
