Middle of Midterms
I tend to ignore my professors
and my responsiblities
and my needs
I don't shower as often as I should
I have no desire to leave my room
I'd starve out if I could
No one has even noticed
I haven't left my room in a week
Why should I?
Why would I?
I am making good grades
I have a three point
What else matters?
Maybe my level of sleep and my desire to eat
Maybe my ability to wash clothes
Maybe my ability to wash me
My hair is in greasy knots
and I am fading as much as my purple hair dye
This poem is about:
