a lifetime of awkwardness

but only 6 senryus

By Jada FergusonPublished 3 years ago • 1 min read

1

My laughter bellows

Bounces off classroom walls but

The fart is louder

-

2

Stampede back to desks

A brick catches my foot, the

floor lands on my face

-

3

I paint streets with puke

My ailments, a color wheel

Projection, the brush

-

4

Words tunnel backwards

After a question is posed

Nonsense mumbles out

-

5

Plead and bargain with

limbs for cooperation,

For spurts of success

-

6

I rotate on this

Humiliation axis

Stumbling without fail

humor
