Can I keep this simple?
Can I say what’s on my mind
Without wasting your time?
Can I find the right words
To help my heart feel lighter – –
To let me voice feel heard —
Without digressing to the absurd?
Can I create meaning
Within just a few perfunctory lines?
Or will my thesis escape
Before I even finish this rhyme?
