Poem Title:
Poem
There was a short wait at the doctor’s office today, typically odd considering he’s usually on time- He’s my least favorite doctor, I really must say, but he awfully good trying to figure out my mind. I had an open secret I really wanted to express, an amazingly awful time I was having at school- I appeared invisible one afternoon at recess, they called me “tiny elephant” and that I wasn’t cool. See, a girl named Patty was very passive aggressive, naturally strange when she bullied other friends- Many other unpopular celebrities were quite impressive, but they were big babies and in the in-crowd couldn’t blend. One day the light in the darkness really opened my eyes, I ran slowly to Patty and gave her a piece of my mind- There was a small crowd gathering nearby, the deafening silence made my eyesight so blind. I stood up for myself and seemed to be pretty cruel, acted naturally but really was acting pretty ugly- There were so many of my least favorite friends at school, but I gave her what she had coming, I was awfully lucky. Patty was a big baby and acted like her dry eyes would cry, growing smaller and smaller by every darn minute- I screamed nicely, “Patty is there a good reason why?” But my unruly patience had a really strict limit. After all the sweet agony was finally said and done, there was a noticeable absence in the desk next to me- I guess the silence was broken to her annoying fun, and now I am stuck in the happiness of virtual reality. 1.
