I was anything
but the match she
wanted, anything but
the jousting rebel
she longed for, my life
was anything but
the dragon search she
dreamed of, filled with
old socks, regrets about
other people's games,
problems with urination,
not wall-scaling revelry
or wise counsel seeking,
not the armor she
wanted her steed to wear.
