the troll's tale


she had a full set of brains

but lost it,listening to bad

advice and the troll who

was her awful husband

for a year.I told her not

to do it but she did,saying

she'd work things out over

time.She's lost now in the 

city of bad dreams.it seems

no one can find her anywher.

yet we hear her pass at night 

down the street--sleepless,

calling for the troll whom

she loves,still searching for 

a man who never was.
