University

students are not “customers”,

self-entitled sh**s!

 

Is silence golden?

What if it is now tarnish?

Need some polishing.

 

Abandoned? O no...

At least give me a note.

No love, gotta go.

 

Impostor syndrome

from then to now, will it end?

probably never

 

 

Patrick the wombat

Twenty nine years he goes on

Celebrity life

 

Met cute dog today

Just look like the dog I know

I missed him a lot

 

Second cup of tea

Every sip is really sweet

Emotions at ease

 

Pie is very sweet.

It is sour and tangy.

It needs to be baked.

 

 

 

 

 

Sharks are very swift

First you see them, not you don't

That are super fast

 

Approached while shopping

Offended or excited?

“Want a free haircut?”

 

White Rabbit, where are

you? I need to get away.

Take me to Wonderland!

 

Elevators bring

Hordes of people! What was that?

Oops! Missed a phone call.

Her full bodied sound

Filled my wary with sweet music

Ella’s voice soothes me

 

Mystifying death

Emotionally complex

Awkward sympathy

 

I’m stifled, can’t talk

Afraid of what I will say

Or what it will mean…

 

Never enough sleep

Constant whining from all sides

Whence will come my rest?

 

 

Most pumpkin spice foods

Do not have pumpkin in them!

Mindblown: autumn style

 

When butterflies get

nervous, do they get humans

in their small stomachs?

 

Very hot today

Tempted to take a dip

In the swimming pool

 

Feel sacrilegious

Best birthday present: no school

Rosh Hashanah, whoot!

 

 

 

 

Compliments from a

coffee cup: “Hey, good looking!”

Made a hard day turn.

 

Oopsie! I keep for-

getting! I need to put it

in my calendar

 

Drove out to Appling

Got there too late to play. Crud. Hashtag: Epic fail

Tiny baby cheeks

They’re so plump and kissable

Giggles fill the air

 

Tide may be turning

Will not get swept up in it

Tranquil waters near

 

Showering all day

Cannot do my routine walk

What a boring day!

 

 

 

 

Moving at snail’s pace

Trying to climb a mountain

Will I finish this?

 

New friends, new faces

New stories and adventures

Turning a new page

 

She is so happy!

New car plate to pick up guys

And eat el toro!

 

 

 

 

 

Obama’s in town

Thanks for visiting us, but

Traffic will be nuts

 

El Toro ice cream

Fried bringer of awfulness

More like El Tor-NO

 

Pump up the volume

I wanna rock to the beat

I've got some fly moves
