Listen to poem:
You Have No Idea
is it misguided pride
when in every way
I want you
to take me
possess me
claim what is yours
all the while refusing
to hand myself over
like some cheap prize
at a country fair
everybody plays a game
abiding by the rules
concocted in their head
when do we realize
that some games
have no winners
