In A Roundabout Way
Pondering ways of how to do it
sitting here scratching the head
how can one best get through it
& put this challenge well to bed
It's not easy for the self obsessed
speaking of self with no mention
of the letter that states one best
yet still be clear in the intention
Maybe best to speak in the third
person & refer to oneself as she
but in addition not using a word
referencing one rhyming with he
No it's not doable it's a delusion
admit being well & truly stumped
alas she reaches the conclusion
KDAmB you win she's trumped
In response to a challenge laid out in KDAmB's inspiring poem "I"
