    Manic, my mind reaches out in frenzy
    Is it just a silly name of
    Your other persona?
    The one you hide from the
    general population-
    Or are you a secret spy,
    Light jazz music penetrating
    from behind your false eyes?

    The dimly lit bar scene
    Me, on stage with a broken microphone
    Desperately trying to prove
    Undying adoration
    To a man I barely know

    Waiting years for the day
    I wished to be truely swept off
    My aching feet

    I really like this line, very nice image and for what I take from your piece here, it's insightful as well. I'm feeling your work here, so keep em coming!

    I agree with Fulman those two lines stood out the most for me.
    I re-read the first two stanzas and found them more interesting after the second read then the first, but the ending was still a little weak to me. Overall I liked.
