Time To Laugh

12/20/20
PARTY FOLK poetry contest
Sponser-Julia Ward


Shut up
Please
All of you party animals
Howling at the golden moon
Like your wishing for it
To howl right back
Your open laughter
Grates on my nerves
Maybe I'm cynical
But I hate it here
So why did I come
I guess I needed an out
I'm stuck at home constantly
With no chance to escape
The four walls that now dampen my life
Maybe I'm jealous
That you're all deliriously happy
Laughing like maniacs into the night
While I'm stuck
In a conversation I don't want to be in
I think I am jealous
Maybe I'll go over
And say hello to you guys
Maybe I can change the way
The night will turn out
But at the pace it's going
I don't think I can
However
I still have time to laugh.

David Wakeling December 20, 2020 at 6:49 PM This is depressing.I hate parties so I don't know why anyone would go and complain the whole time.Get a hobby or a cat and leave the party. Isabella Villanti December 20, 2020 at 7:00 PM that is a good idea, usually i wouldn't write stuff like this, but I wrote it for a contest about being at a party so yah, also if you have a rude comment, plz keep it to yourself, you wouldnt like if someone posted rude stuff about your writing, thank you.
