A ninth-grade injustice that haunts
was once new to the campus
grew stoic like Camus:
I got drugged on the campus
hungry, unthinking
by temptress was handed
cute cupcake laced with
more than just cannabis
got expelled, was mishandled
dumb, took what was handed
ate half, some more
a bad hand dealt, then bland mind
my eyes melt, abland sight
could not walk, I knelt
organs made hell, burning
couldn't tell
crawled to classes
made fifth bell, shut down senses
"friends" no help, false pretenses
dead smell, past tense was future
untensed, adopted death's aspect
mouth dense, it held all existence
stumbled through, slumped desk
sent to office, saw my eyes
slurred my words, he's high, yes
weakly said, "pleasss 'elp"
checked pockets, ripped backpack
destiny's clapback;
the gremlins took the prize beforehand,
so spared jail,
but also an ambulance, a negligence;
I shouldn't be alive
