6764. GO TELL

GO TELL
To be mangled as a star in a 
cosmos of the deep  -  that is 
something to imagine. Yes,
try that sometime on a bus 
rounding to cross Central Park, 
or in your kayak brigade
running rapids.
-
My personality has a flex like a
glitter  -  I can charm, but it's against
my wishes; and I can't sing a stitch.
Marion Barry had nothing on me, nor,
for that matter, would have Mary Baker
Eddy had she had a glimpse of me.
-
I am wooden, and I am stone.
Stalwart, and nervous, and shy as well.
All that, and mostly wrapped up in nothing.
