Dream of Attila the Hun
I move among
the neglected
and damned,
But you'd never know that
to look at me.
Prim and proper
though I may seem,
I,
Too,
Am an outcast.
My 'good' clothes
hide a broken heart.
Sunglasses shade
the pain in my eyes.
If I were a leader,
I'd found an empire,
Away from society's
woes.
