Poems from Marissa2014
Ch
chan
change
Look at all the homeless on the streets
Rattling their cups
---Can you spare some change?
From young to old they are...
Here I stand
Absolute
The monsters rising up beside me
Clawing
and grabbing
and pulling
I scream
"I am...
A lone leaf
Standing absolute
Among brittle branches
That rip and tear and
Try to break...
Hey! Listen UP!
I am tired of sitting in the back!
These uncomfortable chairs are molding me
into a statue!
I can't even hear you...
