Favourite poet

3 months in, He asks your favourite poet, If you have one at all. You tell him who it is. He’ll forget, he’s sure. So he’ll ask again. By the fifth, he will know That you have one at all, But the name will elude him. He says he’ll tattoo it to his wrist So that when people ask the meaning Just as people always do, He will smile Because it’s about you.
