Can't never could, girl.
Can't never will.
Can't does nothing, girl.
Can't has no thrill.

So what if can't can't?
Never have I minded
Can't is just a word
Denying it is blinded

As for nothing and its lack
You really think I care?
Being Nothing is my specialty
But I don't care to share.

My name means I'm a plan
A goal to be achieved.
My destiny abundantly fruitful,
My ambitions the world's seed.

Yet here I am Ms. Nothing,
A can't do this or that
I find myself successful,
Though just a youngling brat

I do nothing very well
Though Can't is all that can
From your logic comes hypocrisy
Not my intended plan

Can't never could, dear
Can't eventually will.
Can't is not of nothing, dear.
Can't is your comfort's still.
Writing Prompt 28--Can't

From one of my particular favorite characters, who is in fact a female, and is highly enthusiastic about sleeping a lot. Her name is Mika, and she is not actually a Twisted character, but a girl/deity from my newest story. No spoilers right now though!

Her name is Mika, and she is the queen of Apathy and the embodiment/incarnate of Nothing. This is simply me reinforcing my belief that nothing is something.

Also, if anyone knows a lot about poetry and the types, and would like to tell me about them, I could probably categorize this one better. I just don't remember 7th grade poetry class...though I loved it a great deal.

Character (c) me and herself, though I think she would rather me just own her so she could do less.

I agree, tis a free style poem.. and a
very intriguing one at that. Does Mika
have a story herself yet or is she just
in the works? She seems a bit self
loathing.. almost as if she's reveling
in the fact that at least she can feel
something towards herself.. even if it
is bitter, pain. Better than being numb.
