closed campus
definition
"a student not being able to leave the school for
any purpose during the school day.
not even to venture into the parking lot."
our plans. crushed.
no milkshakes. no frozen yogurt.
no adventure. no thrill.
this steams my broccoli!
you've removed all hope of slight escape!
to feel the warm sunlight on my
pale. icy skin. the florescent lights
reflecting on my weary frame
stripped of its breath and enthusiasm
my head droops as my hand slides away
losing its support beam
i glance to the clock
one hour till my next break
i sigh. and weep internally
...
cyclical unemployment
(fuck this)

Mr. Feldman
I don't know his first name- the teacher never says it
a car salesman- to take the family business
balding.
i can already tell
and i pity him
he's a living stereotype.
#34
He calls the men Mr.
but the women by their first names
but wait!
a slip up!
He called him Dylan.
but never for the women.
I'm never Miss Trevor
sexism?
or an unnoticed habit?
[the line was originally written "i'm never Miss Graham" because my pen name was going to be Charlotte Graham]

I like cows.
lets draw cows
[insert my drawings of cows]
not as cute as the last ones
:( oh well
there goes my cow-drawing talent
#36
i feel bad
because I don't want to be here
i try so very hard not to pay attention
I do on occasion because I need a decent grade
and I waste enough of my time here
that i should actually try
and He tries so hard
to make economics seem interesting
which is an impossible task
oh crap. he called on me. blah!
i answered sorta correctly.

my parents are seeing Book of Mormon
without me
I cried
i'm not allowed to come
I cried
#38
hey let's take a trip
let's drive that red mustang
across the country
going 60 down the highway
let's drive on Route 66
and take pictures of the past
or drive to obscure places
in awkward states
Nebraska, the Dakotas, etcc.
just jump in the car
and hit the gas
and let's runaway together
forget the world and just go
#39
the siren sounds
the ambulance races by
and my heart stops
because it could be you
a mix of nausea and anxiety
take over my body
i can no longer function
paralyzed with fear
my thoughts reeling
the awful possibilities are endless
that's it!! that's all of them!
