Go To the Corner

go to the corner  
a cascade

sitting in a ratty chair
tattered, torn, very forlorn
perfectly reflects, her child-like 
despair; there is no magic to repair
her ‘sorrowful me’ rigid air while
sitting in a ratty chair
thoughts and wishes squished inside
day dreams simply refuse to fly all 
tattered, torn, and very forlorn
a sniffle, begins to grow and bloom
inside her curly little dome, it
perfectly reflects, her child-like despair.
