Teen Angst
Emma sits
Legs sprawling
The air
Tainted
With a foul scent
Causing the nose
To wrinkle
Dirty laundry blankets
The floor
Like mucus coats
Her throat
Slow, melodic beats
Soft, angelic vocals
Of
“idontwannabeyouanymore”
Drown out
The sniffs
The coughs
The tears

I created this poem while listening to the song "idontwannabeyouanymore" by Billie Eilish. We were given the task of using a selection of words for this assignment, so I chose "mucus, foul, and wrinkle" to base a poem off of.
