My life isn't a story,
It isn't full of conflict
Or involve knick of time resolutions;
There is no evil villain
I desperately need to thwart;
I have no fairy godmother,
No hidden weapons at my disposal
Nor is there some insufferable climax
Or unforeseeable twist in the plot--
I won't ride off into the sunset
In a carriage pulled by horses
Or save the world all in one day...
No, my villain multiplies spontaneously
And hounds me daily,
I make my own magic
And rely on higher powers--
The highlights never end,
The plot never focused beyond a blur;
No end to an eternal journey
Where the world is already saved.
