the pockets of her mind

Carol is a liberal from Zurich

goes to the Opera all the time

She secretly disdains all the working people’s names

and none can fill the pockets of her mind

She votes and shames her family for their views

unaware that they supplant the wealth she has

And she often writes a poem

When she does, she gets a stage

And the rest is often hidden under rhyme

she writes poems at herself

but she changes things she hates

like her name and life and gender

Is she real or am I bait?
