Underdog Days
There were times
when I had
to remind myself ..
She had a thing
about losers,
the homeless
and for orphans ..
Then of course
there were also
the times
when I was forced
to acknowledge ..
She had a thing
about justice
and went down
on abusers
with an iron fist
and a loathing ..
But then again,
there were those
times when I just
had to remind
myself ..
she loved victims,
the wounded,
diseased
and the starving ..
Yet though
there were also
a few occasions ..
When I was
forced to convince
myself ..
She chose me
for some other odd
reason, entirely perhaps ..
