You thought you won again?
It's always a hoax.
I will be back.
Writing more poems.

Not going away.
Glad I woke up early.
I'm ready & dressed.
Nothing can detour me.

I'm 50 years old.
You drove Grace crazy.
Wet cloths hanging on the line.
Dance! It's a party! You're lazy!

Maybe you should have danced;
like she said.
You called her crazy;
until she was dead.

I am not Grace.
It is her I am under.
Open your eyes.
The land of wonders.

You're locking up your blessings.
They remain here with me.
You don't have to break the box.
I was always the key.
