Child Valda's Wheelright

Tune: Egwene Meter: 12 Title:  Ageless Annie Mae At 12:00 is Annie Mae's nap, Sheet pulled over, cheeks to pat. At half past noon, it's time to zoom. Tico, her man, on standby again.

Dinner time, legumes and attack!  Scuze me honey? You want wanted a whattie?  Well early to bed and early to rise,  These rings! those golden eyes.  Interpretations:  The poem is a commentary on the show. It is as fictional as the show in that we only have inference to Valda’s view of catching the Amyrlin Seat. It switches perspectives amongst him, Egwene, and Perrin. I wrote about my attempts to bond with my new parrot Annie Mae as foreshadowing for Valda fantasizing the reverse - breaking the victim and her bonded warder. In poetry the opposites are meant to be poignant symbols. It begin...

I got monoclonal antibody injections.   So, I park in the upper lot, carrying my security blanket (aka bottle of propel), and start to think about all the other things I could be doing besides this. I want to slip away.  I get pulled back by everything busy and humming. I stumble on. . . my backpack . I talk to the ones wearing the biggest masks who point out where to sit. So I take a deep breath and put on my A game while I got poked in my muffin top . Under?
