I didn't really post too many poems this month, but I do have one I'm quite proud of to close out the month. Hopefully it speaks for itself:
Revenge
Then:
Me,
the rookie,
first class,
lost.
Them:
Amanda, Kate, Ken,
seniors,
smart.
"Machiavellian"
What's that?
They know, I don't
The book isn't about super-heroes?
Now:
Me,
the senior,
last class,
smart-enough.
Them,
sophomores,
integrated studies,
lost.
"Machiavellian"
I still don't know,
but they don't know that.
This book isn't about super-heroes.
Seriously! I had two classes with Kate and Amanda, one with Ken, and two with Kay (who I am assuming you don't know my first semester back. I really thought I was in the wrong place.
ReplyDelete:D This is wonderful. Too bad you posted it before I got a chance to steal it. I can also relate, but I believe it was Kathy who was doing the intimidating... ;)
ReplyDeleteWait...it is still happening to me in YA lit. :(
Myrianne, I can't believe I intimidated anyone!
ReplyDeleteYou're too modest, Kathy. :D
ReplyDeleteSo, Jason, when we getting another poem, or at least another post?
