little scraps of paper
strewn across the hall like its
over
but with crimson stars on musty bedsheets
we realize it has only begun.
good, better, best, work early so you aren't late,
late as in 6 feet under...
just push it all away with high scores and hard work.
who cares about your bleeding heart
or those odd marks you can't see from far away.
youre a star! stars don't take breaks,
they burn forever,
and then implode.
silently.
beautifuly tragic.
"what a way to go!" the sticker says.
one hundred percent.
