Please Do Not Notice Me
Please do not notice me Harriet said, capeesh?
We thought she was humble, but we were wrong.
I caught her in the city with a duck on a leash.
Garnering all kinds of attention from a city throng.
No one takes a duck on a walk in New York City.
Unless they want to be noticed, said my cousin Wright.
Or they want to be seen as pretty or witty….
I said as Harriet and the duck danced out of sight.
