Connie

You look like a Connie
Something about you screams the name,
The shape of your nose
And the glasses perched on them
You are undoubtedly american..
your face is long and thin.
You are taller than most of your friends.
You'd look horrible in a hat
Unless it's a black unmarked baseball cap

It must be your name,
I feel it is required.
That you parents,
Taking you home for the first time,
Must have crossed off all other names
Jane, holly and Amanda
Briskly and confidently etched through
All because I see you,
Pulling your suitcase behind you,
In search of your assigned seat
On this plane
You remind me of one
And it is what i imagine.
