I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can't remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La la la la la la…

                        Song: A Horse With No Name
                        Song by America, Songwriter: Dewey Bunnell

forgotten

gone and forgotten again
made me attend
they read the whole list
my name does not exist
how can i resist
the urge to scream
out my name
forget it
they won’t remember 
that, either
way I remember 
that they forgot
and can laugh at it
why not?!

Kim,I’ve sure missed reading your work. I’ve been quite I’ll for several months. This poem approached feelings of desolation and despair for me. But then you — maybe aside the Waymaker, turned over the attitude apple cart, turning Despair to The-Other-Cheek. Blessed, Bad to Good. A benevolent read!

So sorry that you’ve not been well, Sally. Hope you are feeling better <3 Yes, there are times when we can feel sorry for ourselves but in the end perhaps we are better having survived difficult things. Thank you for your comment, sweet lady. xx

Why attach ourselves, through recognition, to insignificance? Christ and you are a Majority! Excellent write!
