This is not poetry.
It’s fill in the blank
I’m a teacher
There’s comfort in assessments
I live in hell
Otherwise known as [Insert State]
At 25
Vowed
Never to to step here
Again
Till hubby
Sat me at the table
“You won't like what I’m about to say”
I moved
Livin' gold star
[Insert Acronym]
Where sun never stops
Beating
Tiffany Blue bounced
Fabricated grasses
But
I moved from
unleveled streets
with overarching one hundred year old trees
Foot melt grass, loamy sponges
Wind snapped
Castle upon a hill
I taught in that neighborhood
Never, ever wanted
To leave
Til hubby
Sighed and folded hands upon the table
“It will happen quickly”
I’m over how hard it is
moving to
the limp dick
of the united states.
Over the New
Over the discomfort
of
Where I'm living
Fill in the blank with the correct state.
