thinking in three dots

broke out a pen, not a pencil

i usually use pencils for english homework,

mechanical ones,

teal or purple.

but i guess it's different

with forgotten homework,

either rushed or

completed by chatgpt

at 10:59 pm.

i don't want to do homework

or study for the tests

i have tomorrow.

i want to write poems,

is what i say.

i want to write poems

forever.

poems read by everyone

across the world.

but i want to go to sleep.

eyelids melting during class,

drifting off,

a new habit for me.

dream of all the poems

i could be writing

about being drained,

while drained.

i do a lot of thinking without writing.

for a writer.

too lazy to grab my journal

out of my nightstand,

open a new document on my laptop.

but i'm doing it now,

perhaps a sign.

it may be to go to bed,

but in the least,

a sign.

and maybe it will say

something else tomorrow.

i hope it will say something else tomorrow.

but i'll check back again, at 10:59 pm.
