Something That She Said

Something That She Said
She had so much potential
it sometimes got her down,
she did'nt like her work
but it got her into town.
It really was a problem
but she chose to ignore it,
like clothes that don't fit
stubornly she wore it.
In a mad rush
she did a foolish thing,
in a split second
a split thought would bring
an indecision
she made a silly choice.
She opened up her mouth
to articulate her voice.
Across the smoke filled bar room
sounds were drunken
as the drinkers sat and chatted
slumped and sunken.
