My Dearest - NOT (NaPoWriMO #3 and PAD Day 2)

Challenge: Poem love letter to an old flame. (Mine is fiction)

Use one or more of these words:

dung beetle, politician, nuclear, exoskeleton, oceanography, pompadour, toilet

My Dearest Darling Daniel

I write to you today

I wonder why you treated me

as a dung beetle in your way

I remember how you used to look

That pompadour was so poofy

All swirled up on top your head

you looked a lot like “Goofy”

I know I sound a little trite

But if you could only know

A politician shouldn’t make a date

And instead decide to just not show

You made me look like such a fool

The waiters questions made me blush

Your notes of love are gone for good

Down the toilet in one flush
