have you ever felt so out of place, you'd do anything to get back in?so today was a total bummer.mr chiang completely blasted at us for not having enough enthusiasm during p.e..i mean how much enthusiasm could you possibly instill into a freaking 16 year old? i thought we girls were all trying our best even thought we are 'less skilled' -[according to mr chiang] than the boys.hehi feel kinda guilty tday cause i wasnt really paying attention in class. instead, i directed my entire attention at aaron's 'freaking cool book of poetry'-which was apparently written by 11 school girls between the age of 14-16. here's one of the lot;The Geography of You
see now:
bones bracing your wrist
sapling-seek, and young.
braceleted with tributaries
an undercurrent of blood and song
dappled with skin,
ashen with travel, plotted bright.
see here:
spine like a stepped path
ridged steep, cliff-tall,
course unscaleable, but soft of detour
beneath hands that pave roads
etching up on you
wind-kissed signs.
but ask my eyes not to roam, not to wander
this mercurial land
where the sands shift and sun sears bone -
your waters are charted, i know, i swam well and wide,
mapped, valeyed
dammed and docked
in some other geographer's map.
hope you guys like it :)
