Marilyn

Art Part II

She sat there nicely

without saying a word to me

I liked that.

I guess I thought that I could be ignored

I guess I thought that she wouldn't notice

But she did.

I stared, 

I don't think she noticed,

I thought maybe she wouldn't.

I talked to Jack,

One of my friends

He sits near her, too.

Where I'm sitting,

You have a perfect view of the room,

You can see everything, and everyone.

I thought she didn't notice me,

And I thought that for a while, 

But she did, and does now.

Maybe if she'd say something to me,

I wouldn't be so nervous.

But, 

I guess I'll be nervous for a while

'Cause I'm not moving seats.
