So here we are.
Today’s Horribly Local Poor Poetry Month (HoLoPoPoMo) entry:
fake it
a zircon, when it’s chiseled right
shines like a diamond in the light
so carry on, you not-a-jewel
for folks are such a cinch to fool
The end.
Yes indeed. Welcome to me.
I ran through the same thought process approximately 15 minutes prior to my first attempt at proposing to my wife. Turns out she's a mind reader, as she started praising the symbolism of the diamond, how it lasts forever, just like our love. Zirconia betrayed my thoughts and failed my wallet that day.
