The Pierced Dreamer

Thomas W Case



I met her at
the Corner Pocket.
She was bartending.
Her nose was
pierced, so was
her tongue, and
her heart.
She spoke of
a Utopian city:
A town of tree houses.
She was in her
third year of
architectural school at
Iowa State.
Some dreams are
best left
unsaid.

      Short but with a message. I loved the line
      "Some dreams are
      best left
      unsaid"
      True and applies to many things.

      • Thomas W Case

        Yes. Thanks for reading and commenting.

        I can only hope she made it to be an architect. 🌹
