how funny it all is...

i smirk to think of all the things you'll appropriate this year:
other people's words, strung together, as your own;
in the morning reciting snippets of songs
to a lover
or whatever
some last ditch effort.
you've even started to smile differently,
like a faded postcard.
i bet they can't remember your name either.
