I imagine her
three letters only
standing in between
the featured
the forewarded
the contributed
the selected
the special-guested
In between
the
unpronounceable
intelligent
scholarly
the
Award-winning
artistically intimidating
hyphenated
multi-syllabled
the
shame-on-me-I-should-know-that-name-but-don’t
Holding
her
own.
