I had a poem
published on the Internet.
It looked good there and
I went to see it often.
After a while they moved the
poem into a
great big archive with
a lot of other poems.
I still visited
though maybe not quite as much.
One day I went to look and
it had disappeared.
I suppose it must
have escaped or maybe died.
I’m not sure how long
poems are supposed to last.
Someone told me forever
but that can’t be right.
