She Was Worthy and Confident

She had an atrocious way about her Even when things went awry, She kept her anguish to herself If I had the power to assuage my own feelings of worthlessness To absolve myself of any perceived wrongdoings I might enjoy her magical allure Oh, wait, she has deemed me an auspicious opponent? I have a tiny appetency to center my wagons and take her on. If she was not so unpredictably worthy and self-confident it would be an easier decision. She comes toward me with her all-knowing power. I shriek and run off in fright. Written October 31, 2019 Contest: Crazy A’s Poetry Contest Sponsor: John Hamilton
