She will never be

by Yakari Gabriel   Jul 7, 2011


'It was not cookies,
but secrets,
they told her to buy..

to walk upon dry leaves
in her red coat,
for it was cold ..

'beware of scary
creatures'

they said...

as if she would,

as if it was possible..
to make a cake out of black pepper
not sugar..

she threw on some
shades and flip flops
held the hand of
the big scary creature
bought the secrets

and ran away...

-
she was never the one,
to do what she was supposed to.
