Coquette

Our plan was hatched

And opportunity set

But then you went and spoiled it

By playing hard to get

Clandestine

Let’s
meet
up

And
misbehave

Then
take
our
secrets

To the
grave

A Book Next, Perhaps?

This seems to have served you well

He said

With plenty of folks who enjoy reading

I never thought I’d get this far

She said

Let alone that I’d be succeeding

Talentless

I wish I could
take your plaudit

But I just write
what comes to me

My inability
to self edit

Laid bare for
all to see

Tease

So I’ve recorded some of my poems

And I don’t think they’re half bad

Who knew that in speaking

There’s so much fun to be had

But now I’m in a conundrum

As I need to make a choice

Do I stay safely anonymous

Or finally reveal my voice?
