The Forgotten One


They passed me with curiosity unabated
A fleeting look, their eyes fixated
Unmindful of the value that’s mine to share
And the rave and excitement that I once evoked
But alas now an ornament I am, to adorn and beguile.

Inspired by Magpie no. 42

  4. The movie "Blow up" has a scene in a night club where a rock guitarist smashes a guitar. Several people fight viciously for the souvenir. Our leading man wins it. When he leaves the club, he examines it and tosses it into a pile of rubbish.
