Write a poem from the point of view of yourself, ten years ago.<\/em><\/p>\n

I am so excited<\/p>\n

Life is gonna go my way<\/p>\n

First week is done already<\/p>\n

Next week is on its way<\/p>\n

And I think people really like me<\/p>\n

And like what I have to say<\/p>\n

My nerdom isn’t hidden<\/p>\n

To my grandparents dismay<\/p>\n

And sure I can’t read<\/p>\n

The books I just checked out<\/p>\n

About demons and faeries<\/p>\n

And the world within and out<\/p>\n

Because grandma believes in them<\/p>\n

And inviting them is a sin<\/p>\n

I guess I’ll learn at school alone<\/p>\n

No matter<\/p>\n

Nothing can wreck the weekend<\/p>\n

I met someone cool on Thursday<\/p>\n

I’ll meet with him again<\/p>\n

And soon I’ll have my birthday<\/p>\n

And tests and finals and<\/p>\n

I’ll realize something about myself<\/p>\n

While searching for a sin<\/p>\n

I don’t know it yet<\/p>\n

Not for another few years you see<\/p>\n

But I’m living as a girl<\/p>\n

Like I was raised to be<\/p>\n

And I’m feeling all things strongly<\/p>\n

Powerfully as can be<\/p>\n

I’m alone and hoping<\/p>\n

That college can save me<\/p>\n

From the curse of my battered family tree<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
