Just the Beginning

Not here today,

to beam and smile

at these trophies

in your closet

I've got plenty too

you know

let's keep them

for the others

who can't reflect

lead me instead

to the You's

you've hidden

the skeletons of you

you could never Be

let's open them up

it should be fun, I bet!

we'll cut them up

shed a tear or half

keep what's good,

let's see what we get!

hold on! I've got mine too

This last one

I've been saving

just for you

cut! keep! throw!

now we're all set!

let's then walk out

into this Brave new world

let's run I say

together,
in circumspect.
