My Year of Writing Dangerously

On the spur of one of my (increasingly rare) moments of inspiration, I decided that in order to maintain my artistic integrity, and because I can't keep calling myself a writer for much longer without actually WRITING something, I am going to write a poem a day for the next year. The first poem will be posted on August 10, 2010 and the last poem will be posted on August 10, 2011. (Unless, of course, I decide to keep going.) Not all of the poems will be good, and DEFINITELY not all of them will be interesting, but I will gaze around my kitchen, my living room, and Coming Home Cafe until something inspires me, then write a poem about it, as well as my random thoughts on the mundane things that no one notices, but which it is my goal to immortalize over the course of this year.

Day 22 - Back to School

Back to school tomorrow... senior year. AHH HOW DID THIS HAPPEN!!!! One minute I'm learning how to spell in kindergarten and now I'm ten months away from GRADUATING FROM HIGH SCHOOL!!!!
It's very exciting (especially since of how awesome my course load is) but it's also more than a little scary.
This is going to be a turbulent, emotional year... in other words: the PERFECT year for writing poetry :D

Senior Year
Oh gosh I'm so excited
The end can now be sighted
An era to bury
A wee bit scary
But for that I am delighted

Also, apparently I will be graduating with the class of 1956 - ("oh gosh"?... talk about scary!)
