She Poem by Khristian E. Kay

She once told me …
She tells me a lot
I never get a word in edgewise
She tells me what to think
what to say - who to say it to
She tells me what to wear
Instructs me on how to cut my hair
when to laugh when to cry
when to stand steadfast
She directs my every move
in the kitchen – garage – in the
yard and in bed
She is my muse
my bane of existence
She makes me write
forces me to transcribe
her words in detail with no
forethought or insight of my own
She is poetry
