Goodbye Dreams (Like Goodnight Moon But Weaker Rhymes)

In the summer of my dreams

There was an internship

And some improv scenes

And really cool people

I ran into on the street (hi, fellow Rib writer Sarah Loftus Master!!)

And going to Boston to see my favorite cousins

And two writing classes

And sexy pole dances

And a music festival where I volunteered

And an apartment full of puppeteers

And a boss with a crutch whom I love very much

And a bunch of new friends who said “keep in touch”

Goodbye dreams

Goodbye summer heat

Goodbye people I met on the street

Goodbye freedom

And the improv scenes

Goodbye Boston

Goodbye cousins

Goodbye classes

And goodbye dances

Goodbye Washington Heights

And Saturday Night Live

Goodbye volunteer

And goodbye puppeteers

Goodbye boss

And goodbye crutch

(She hurt herself dancing

cause she drank too much.)

Goodbye to the friends who said “keep in touch”

Goodbye to all who visited

Goodbye feeling like a queen

Goodbye summer of 2016
