She leaves me
A room full of strangers,
Even though I’m here
For her,
To hear her tell her tale
About how she makes her living
I am an abandoned child,
stranded in this castle, high school, stadium,
no hair to let down
for me to climb,
no trail of crumbs for me to follow,
she the fairy princess
that needs no rescue,
yet needs me here,
to document this moment,
or am I the court jester,
waiting for that moment
when I might entertain her?
