Page 9 of The Simple Gift


  One that’s so good

  University Professors will read it, badly,

  in front of hundreds of students

  twenty years

  after I die

  to prove to the world

  what a jewel

  what a gift

  what a gem

  I gave

  what a poet I was.

  Love, Ghosts & Nose Hair is a bittersweet comedy written in verse for young adults.
