they sat at the second table from the left. four girls; one with curly hair to her knees, one with a heart for running, and two who love basketball. I tried to fit in. I failed. a poet is not a dancer. a poet is not a runner. a poet is not a basketball player. a poet is a poet. I hated this table. it gave me chills. I walk past the table, because they cannot hurt what isn't in their reach.
