Poems I wrote in high school; fairly strange, enjoy! |
| *My Dilemma* It happens again, my urge commanding my reason I enter the depths, eyeing the cold and lifeless objects. I take a step forward the stench forces me two steps back A familiar sound signals that I must act. I think to myself, “This is getting out of hand. I have to stop.” The choice is down to two: one the green of Eden, the other Midas gold. Do it, time ticks It’s over, D6, I pick my Twix. *Interesting* How is he doing his duty? I can’t see anything but I probably wouldn’t want to. Not his face. The car slows down and I feel it shift into park. We just sit there and wait; for what and for how long, I don’t know. I am nodding off when I hear his car door open. He picks me up by my collar; my head droops. I wish I could throw up on him. Rain starts drizzling, running down my neck. I drag my legs, making him work with dead weight. He stands me up. He says shrilly, “For God and country.” He gives me a push off the ledge. I free fall. The blind fold slips off; I look up and see grey clouds with white centers. Interesting. |
