I Am Not In Disguise
And This Is Not Abridged….
I thought I was on a poetry site
turns out not to be
I don't want to complain
messages keep coming in
from getting acquainted to proposing
from dating
till marrying
several former presidents
and also ordinary students
than the last
predates my birthday recently
an American who has military duty
would like to marry me!
he said I will never regret it
in my mind pops up "sh-t"!
I have told it extensively in my biography
everything is mentioned in it,
fully updated this year by me
I am now very disappointed
now he told me
I am the only anointed
he doesn't know me yet
and he's already very fond of me
being diplomatic isn't a tactic either
Americans want everything fast
he doesn't read what I told him!
he read the message too rapidly!
what ablast!
for him
not for me
as I'm on my brim
from collapsing!
so tragic
if I tell him
I don't wish you!
Including my confession
he is not the first to propose in fashion
I thought I was on a poetry site
all problems aside
that constant messaging me
I am shocked and ashamed
I thought I was on a poetry site
this is no fame for worldwide
ashamed and shocked
my poetic emotions blocked!
till today....
what could I say?
