Be Forgot

Moment

not to be forgot

in fact whole worlds

are built

upon its import

Small girl

sits alone

in a church vestibule

while adult women chat

adjacent

Oh just

leave her there

she’s pouting

Leave her alone

she needs to learn

Small girl

alone in a vestibule

to be forgot

as women’s laughter

fades

For Karin’s prompt to the Real Toads: TAKE TWO AND SING

(Using the words “be forgot” from Auld Lang Syne)
