Notes About The Poem

When I Met Hilary

It was during the presidential campaign at a convention,
when I first met and shook hands with Hilary Rodham Clinton.
".. and what do you do?" she would ask of everyone,
whose hand she would shake at that convention.
Eventually,
Ms Clinton reached me.
".. and what do you do?" I was asked by Ms Clinton.
"The same as you," I responded smiling, "Absolutely Nothing."
