poem two

so i had a chem test today
it was like getting kicked in the face
in a way

not that i would know
and so
i fear the grade
the grade that's so near
but so far away
because my professors adore suspense
and i don't

not really.
it depends i guess
like if it's in a movie
then that's cool
but not when it's a test

an intangible grade
floating about in the air
nothing you can do about it
yet it follows you wherever you go
for the rest of your life
stalking

like a stalker
on the internet
you know one of those facebook creepers
but you can't block them
cause they'll just make a new profile
scary

like a final
or forgetting to bring your room keys with you
and being stuck in the lobby in exile
on a late night
and you have nowhere to sit

cause the drunks have passed out on the couches
or the front lawn
whichever was nearest
