He'd Be A Pretender



He’d Been A Pretender

strange months
of old town blues
the awful romance
of it all worn clean
on the curl of his lip

he’d been a pretender

pretentious
                contentious
fabricated

strange months
in the wilderness
the firm resistance
of it all worn blunt
in his empty gaze

he’d been a pretender

**

So many pretenders.

That is all.

Happy Saturday!

In propinquity,
Nic
