Trio

The original three

the beginning, almost

of our bond.

In my backyard

reading books that we found

weird

gross

too informational

with comic strips

oh, I am never going to forget the comic strips.

We bonded

but over what, I can't tell

maybe it was because we biked and walked to school together

maybe it was because we knew each other

nearly from the start.

We're still like that

except we walk and bike to school together less

but we still have the connection

the bond

the trio.

  • Exploring

    The toy falls 

    faster 

    faster 

    closer to the ground 

    its paws reaching out

    it lands on the grass with a light thud

    it hides there

    waiting

    quietly.

  • Everything

    I have the chance to do anything

    not quite everything

    but many things

    and I don't know what I want to do.

    I could be a writer

    or start my own company

    or be an Einstein-level mathematician

  • Stereotypes

    I hate stereotypes

    and the heavy, constant smell of perfume as I walk by my classmates wearing too much lip gloss

    but I like dressing myself up

    and I do care about my appearance
