Thanksgiving weekend was really sweet.
Time to head on back to college.
Fun's over... think Classes & Homework.

I’m dreadfully angry with Martin
He posted footage of me fartin’
'twas a terrible shock
It’s all over Tik Tok
Guess Martin and I will be partin’

Such a dull life, as permits
One for to dream through!
In budding to be admired
Warmly kissed, desired
Magnolia reflects, wintered
For shut-in worldview
Stilly rapt, what for beauty's
Growing sense does please.
Walking along the path to school
Wondering how others thought of her,
whether good or ill.
Oh, she wanted to be thought smart in math.
But no~ for her 'twas a blood bath!
Well, perhaps I'll be witty,said she.
Everyone likes a laugh.
Ah, dearest lass!
They did not like her at that.
Bereft on the school steps did
she sit.
And realized suddenly, there was
no need to fit.
She was a bright sunflower gold
and gleaming.
And at a very young age, learned,
It's only your song to be singing.

She starts out making the boys love her
Even makes them think they're above her
But when they come back
She gives them that whack
So in the end they want to shove her
