About the Poem

This poem is about a girl who has a tiger statue that she calls Kismet. the day that she got this statue she met the man of her dreams who brushes her off as a pest. She believes that to be noticed you have to be beautiful to be with this man. She wants to be beautiful to be some man's Kismet, some man's destiny

Kismet

I have a tiger named Kismet,
which means destiny.
I got her the same day
That I met him:

Him with the ice blue eyes.
Him with the long black hair.
Him who saw me as a nuisance.

Why can't I be beautiful?
Why can't one man see me as beautiful
Why can't one man see me as their Kismet?
Their Destiny?
