Dear Tolkien, We Haven't Met
I myself ramble endlessly.
I write line upon line that breed irrelevance in their time.
I myself ramble needlessly.
I cry out on every page, hoping to catch the attention of some old sage.
I ramble endlessly.
I read your books once, yes, once or twice.
I've read going now on more than thrice.
Everytime they catch my eye, I see something,
Something new that to last time, I was blind.
The many details hidden between each other,
The way they flow instead of blunder.
The words form themselves in a neat little way,
Maybe that will be me someday.
But now, right now, me?
I myself ramble endlessly.
