Carly Larkin Poet Prose Poetry

A Spirit Left Unreighned

I imagined I'd be dauntless-

With a heart that's left untamed;

A mind that's left unhaunted-

And a spirit left unrheined.


I imagined I'd hold to virtue,

And leave myself unnamed.


I thought I'd leave behind-

Without a second look;

Thought this mind of mine-

Would retain information like a book.
