For My Past and Future Worries
Greatness
is a lot
like falling
asleep:
you must
pretend
to be
before
you are
and when
you are
you aren’t
aware
you are
you just
are.

Don’t read this:
This part is only here to reach the minimum word count, but why is there a minimum for poetry? I’ve got poems with no words, I've got poems with two. Even as I write this I have a poem dangling from my front teeth just waiting to drop! Spoil me with your brevity, I am the Rat King, after all.
