On the Last Day of Senior Year...

On the last of senior year,
My art class gave to me:

One redneck selfie stick,
Three sophomores caroling,
Six star-shaped tattoos,
And one potato drawing of me...

On the last day of senior year,
My biology class gave to me:

One teacher signature,
Five students drawing,
Nine people stuck in boredom,
And a booklet from a Pictonary game...

On the last day of senior year,
My journalism class gave to me:

One lunchroom pizza,
Three seniors sitting,
Ten orange Tic-Tacs,
And a frantic search for senior names...

On the last day of senior year,
My government class gave to me:

One student testing,
Four oatmeal cookies,
Closing the goddamn door,
And a few tears shed.

On the last day of senior year,
I came to realize:

I would really miss this place,
I'm going to miss my friends,
You have to get everyone to sign your yearbook,
And I'll be spending my Saturday walking across a red stage.
