Biopoem

This was an assignment for class and I kinda like the results

Mary Quince

Forgiving. Open. Analytical. Clever

Sister of five brothers.

Lover of rain puddles, thrift stores, bracelets, and homecoming.

Who feels better at home, more sane in the winter, and safer with pets.

Who needs family, lake water, and satin pillowcases.

Who fears the power of words, waking up unloved, and moving away from home.

Who gives birthday parties, many hugs, and elbow grease.

Who would like to see her cats soon, her friends happy, and a guy with his head on straight.

Native of Scottsboro.

after we text

i'm really mad at you...
because i liked you a lot
and you had to go and
get violent one night
"for emphasis" and then
never apologize for scaring me
and partly because you
start bein all nice to me right
when i want to ask if we can
give each other the cd's back
and also i want to go to the
show downtown and because
i want to know what your status means
and also because of all the stuff
we said last night about
each other being good company
even though i said it first
but what makes me the most mad
is that i've learned how
not to like you anymore
or think of you that much and
what makes me really angry
is that all of this makes me sad
