Discount Shakespeare
An anthology of musings
Poetry by seomins━━━ ❦ ━━━
The longest name
My name, writer of wrongs, maker of trouble,
Philosopher of the current, cruel, and critical,
Creator of the concrete, nemesis of the abstract,
Miss chief of magic, miss fit to foster her freedom,
Soul streamer of consciousness, novice of novelty,
All-knower, all-star, all-purpose cream, all-purpose queen,
Tinkerer of overthinking, professional pot-stirrer,
Honer of hollowed hopes, captain of her own crises,
Breaker of social boundaries, ne'er-do-well in their norms,
Spectator at stalemates, peacekeeper at parties,
Wannabe world-changer turned fullest-time frailty,
Stranger to sudden twists in her chorus of life lines,
Underdog amidst a nation's unnatural entities,
Dreamer of breaking past her deprecating dungeon,
Daredevil of words, curated in extreme simplicity,
Apprentice of a star-studded faculty, idols and the idle alike,
And a handful of words, hand-sewn together,
To make like thread, and sound alright.
