Cafeteria
September 20, 2008
Red and big is the nose that
Looks me straight in the face.
Those menacing eyes seem
To melt my skin beyond repair.
I choose to look down at
My converses; black with white.
I try to ignore, deminish
That face that is set before me.
When I walk past, I can
Still feel their glaring, sneering stare.
My mind runs in many different
Directions, wondering what to do.
Wondering what to do with
A knife pointed at my heart,
Soul, body. These clowns would
Laugh louder and louder, the closer
And closer I got to cutting my life out.

Very sensitive poem. I'm disturbed by the ending.
