Excess Baggage

She says
that she knows
what
she wants but
she
doesn’t know,
does she,
not yet anyway ..
She say’s
she can and she
shall but
then, she never
does,
does she ..
She swears she
will spit
it all out quite
soon perhaps ..
Well
maybe she will
one day ..
Or at least she
wants
to eventually,
perhaps ..
But for now it’s
way too
heavy and raw
and too
fucking thick to
spit out
in one sitting ..
After all
said and done,
she just
doesn’t know ..
Who,
where or what
she might
well become
without it in
tow ..
And all safely
stowed
away in the hold ..
