7, Write a short poem

Guys, I’m gonna cheat on this one and post something I wrote way back in high school. (Whoooooooooooaaaa high schoooool!)

Because, well… I’m too lazy to think of one! I haven’t written “poetry” in ages. I use that word very loosely because I could never have the right brain to write proper poems.

Soooo this poem that I’m going to post is something that I just came up with really randomly in my freshman year of high school. Back when, y’know, there were three certain boys in my P.E. class (whose names I shall not mention, but they know who they are and one of them reads my tumblr posts on a somewhat regular basis I’m sure) who would tease me about my running and other P.E. stuff.

Also, it really is a short poem.

Btw, awkward wording/phrasing is what happens when you suck at writing poetry and want to rhyme at the same time.

For People Like Me <—-[That’s the title by the way. I’m sure most of you figured this out on your own though.]

One pushup, or two?
What should I say?
Maybe I should just be true…
One is all I did today.
Oh, no, there she stands
She’s going to write my score!
So, I gulp and wring my hands,
And say, “M’am? I did four…”
