|
you just don't get it
by Michele Schottelkorbsay the right words
the goblin king said
something horrible has happened
lost in the translation
of confusion
and neglect
misunderstood
both ways
backwards and forwards
through the looking glass
she fell
wondering wondering wondering
think harder, young woman
try more
give more
take less
figure out why, you woman-child
why
you
just
don't
get
it
