I have longed for this year since fourth grade When I learned what a val-e-dic-tor-ian was And realized I wanted to be one. I have longed for this year since I was fifteen And wanted to leave home Go out and explore the bigger world Free of parents and noisy siblings. I have longed for this year since my first college tour And I saw the hubbub The libraries, the labs, the dorms, the giant sweatshirts And noticed how small and quiet my high school was. We picked out caps and gowns Red We lead the pep rallies now The loudest yet We're taking physics, and calculus, and the SATs Feeling scholarly We picked out how our names appear on our diplomas First M. Last We have our licenses Drive to school We fill out college applications endlessly And endlessly... We picked our prom theme Great Gatsby We're getting lazy very quickly Senioritis Graduation keeps us going Graduation is the goal Graduation is the light at the end of the tunnel Graduation in June Graduation in red polyester Graduation in the sun Graduation is the end But wait. Hold up. Stop. Stop. STOP! Seven more months with you? You, who I've stared at for four years? You, whose smiles make my day? You, whose face I look for in crowds? You, who are the most amazing person I've ever met? You, who I haven't even asked out? You, who have no idea who I feel? You, who might by some miracle possibly feel the same way? You, who I'll regret never making a move with for the rest of my life? You? Seven. Months.? HOLD UP SENIOR YEAR SLOW DOWN GRADUATION THERE'S A BOY.

Wild Horses (Ballad Poem)
On the 15th of May In the French Laund-er-y There was a small man, The Chef De Partie He was mixing and stirring And stirring his sauce, But his sauce wouldn’t thicken He was at a loss So he needed to think and ponder awhile Until on his face Was a bright white smile. “I have it!” He said. “I know what to do All  that I need Is a nice thick roux.” No reductions or tomatoes Or even puree He needed the roux It was the only way So what he did next was truly “the **** He melted some butter And dumped flour in it. This mixture was gloppy And looked like wet sand The roux was ‘a cooking But looked awfully bland Morton must think How to flavor this glob Chef Tomas Keller said “Morton its your job” He thought and he thought “Oh what can I do? Bechamel or Veloute? What to do with this roux.” “Veloute I think Sounds good for today. I’ll make some of that. Chef might exclaim, “yay!” So he added some stock Of Gertrude McFuzz It was the best bird It certainly was Fond Blanc De McFuzz Was clear and not milky Morton’s Veloute Ought to be silky He cooked it awhile Maybe for one half an hour And when it began to bubble The roux showed its power. It thickened and coated The back of a spoon This stuff’s almost ready It should be done soon He strained it removing the floury bits It needed to be clean No clumpys or grits It was almost over It was just about ready It still needed some tweaking “Can’t we eat it already?!” “No” said chef Teller as he took a lick Was it good? Was it bad? Was the sauce too thick “You did a great job! Trust me, you did.” Said Teller to Morton “You did good kid” “One thing I will say That you forgot to put in It’s the most vital ingredient In the entire kitchen” “Its something that most chefs Don’t use a lot of It comes from within The spice of true love” Morton thought a bit Like he often does And then he said “Chef! That’s what it was” “It didn’t taste right It was missing its pop Its pep in its step Its fizzle. Its hop” He learned something there From Chef Thomas Teller Food needs more love It needs to be stellar After all that And in the end Morton threw it away And started again.

Step by step, With a gorgeous plié, Kick some pep Into a battement jeté. A toy brought to life During a winter dream, Wining a mice fight, Becoming king and queen. Graceful and white, Perfection is seized, A swan's flight, Applause from the pleased. All these to treasure, To hope for, but first Have the right measures And break the weight curse. Do not eat much And practice all day, Have the right touch, Get that perfect cambré. Pointe for pain And chukkers for luck, Just hide those blood stains And redefine pluck When all the joints hurt And toes can't be touched, When all one has heard Is Tchaikovsky's crutch... So proceed and endure, Feel pain and relief, Prokofiev's pitch contour To be ones only belief. Let all this be forgotten When the curtains rise And show all this works gotten Perfection for a prize.

Ballerina
I pleaded with him For his disposition To help me out of My plight and position He for sure heard me But perhaps didn’t listen Wasn’t apparently ready To help my condition The pep talk that he gave And unsolicited suggestion Made clear that he wanted Wriggle out of situation We often have to fight out Our battles in isolation

Isolation
My left brain twists, and secanol comes flowing, My eyes are square moon bases, nonagonal PVC behind them Accounting for a dialing rhythm of split modular beeps, Air-packed and dew drop sized, but only held by felt feelings. They pipe in. The Opener Screamers Open a pal, a pulsing pill of pep talks and peptides, And scream my way into tomorrow, a sleepy cheetah with anxious acid reflux. My right brain does a sit up. My left brain twists, and secanol comes flowing.

My Left Brain Twists, and Secanol Comes Flowing
Where I grew up We didn't celebrate celebrity And weren't slaves to the cattle-drivers of the masses Where I grew up, We were just young And free We toiled on train-tracks Inventing troubles requiring A daring escape. With our stick-strapped-satchels We foolishly mocked the local bums Jealous of their freedom. Ignorant of their pain. Imitation is the hallmark of love And yes, we loved the bums And we were thorough through it Where I grew up The incandescence of the late afternoon And early morning suns Drew in a vibrant orange Cast as paint on pale walls The apartment... and eventually... the house Shone brighter for it; Though it seemed to struggle less in a house That was considerably more empty Especially around the holidays. Where I grew up We were taught racial and radical equality Exacted with extreme prejudice At every pep rally and presumably PTA meeting. And while neighboring towns held race riots We were racing our bikes, well... I do miss my rollerblades Where I grew up Every girl was pretty as a movie star And chased the bad boys Like in every story I'd ever heard And those boys won by popularity and power of presence Girls they never deserved Where I grew up In winter we built massive palaces From the winter's teardrops that huddled together For warmth after the plow Where I grew up... I grew up too soon. A little more than a little at a time And it became clear I had to move.

Marched in step Toting a little red wagon Stride carried pep Dragging that little red wagon Weathered in rust Creaking in the sun Covered in dust It weighs a ton Overburdened by basic trinkets Remnants of Christmas 05 Macaroni made cumulonimbus From school days off winchester drive Photo of family for evidence Not that it means a thing Victim of malevolence Thrown out in early spring Winter brought about the cough Toting a little red wagon His whole system seems off Dragging that little red wagon He's feeling old Went and turned lethargic Held onto the cold Wallowing in hardship Deterioration apparent There's something horribly wrong Behavior aberrant His strength is gone Innocence in tow Holding onto reactionary bliss Writing name in snow ...Blood marked abyss Death encroaches. He falls before his little red wagon A young boy approaches And steals that little red wagon

Little Red Wagon
Phone calls were made, meetings were held and the new group was set to get started There was lots to be learned and so little time for the lessons to all be imparted The plan was immense, it was larger this time and the time was going by fast They would all act as one, getting everything done and their goal was to not finish last It was done every year, in the schools through the town, it was something the kids all enjoyed But this year was tough, with all the closings and stuff and the fact there was more unemployed Each school was set up to blitz through the town and to collect all the food that they can But with more on the list and those who would surely be missed were the ones who set last years plan Team leaders were picked in each group at the school, and their job was to get this all done And to beat last years tote by at least one more pound and to make sure that it was all fun Pep rally's were held to get the students involved and help motivate those involved But with more needing help and less firms out to help, they had problems they had to get solved On December the first, the kids all set out ringing bells in the malls and the stores From there they would go with buses and trucks and collect food by knocking on doors The school who did best bringing in the most pounds would be win a cup and awards But to all those concerned, they had to get out and blanket the town in great hoards People backed out from tasks all assigned, It was cold and they had too much to do There was homework as well, and jobs on the side and alot wouldn't see the task through But they all persevered and the food all came in, cans and boxes and crates and in bags There was food left at school from donators unknown, just good wishes all written on tags The goal was to raise an amount more than last and to do it in twenty two days The total to date was behind just a bit but there was still time to make this year pay So with one last great push the students went out and they held one last drive at the mall If they collect one more ton, then all would be done and they could all know they answered the call On Christmas Eve morn the principals met and they said they had all reached their goals They shook all their hands and they stuck out their chests for they knew that they'd fulfilled their roles The students were told at assemblies too, and the food was dropped off through the town They had beat last years numbers by about fifty pounds even though they all thought they'd be down So for all those they helped for the one day that month, where they had Christmas dinner and laughter Was brought  back to earth by one voice in one school, who asked "What would these families eat the day after?" .

A little fun keeps you young; A little laughter keeps you bright. When you get to that age When a mid life crisis looms Go out and act like a kid again. Don’t worry what the neighbors might say They are probably crazy anyway. Change your hair color grow it long Change your style and wear a thong That will put some spring in your step Or goose yourself to give you some pep Don't worry what the neighbors might say They are probably crazy anyway ha ha ha ha ha ha Dance till the wee hours in the morning Let loose, but don’t get lost in the spring Smile, even if there’s nobody around Run, until you’re nowhere to be found Don’t worry what the neighbors might say You are more than crazy than they anyway..

When you were five Your mom told you you could do anything That you could reach new heights That the stars were just a mile marker Your life was just beginning That you were unstoppable My pep talk was a little different You see no matter how high my heart soared My body was scarred My mamma said you can walk today That sitting up won't feel as bad today That the scar down my back was my beauty mark That one day it may even be my trademark Well that might be true mamma but i don't need a trademark i need a childhood One full of sticky fingers and princess stickers One of training wheels and a smile made of orange peels To say i never had these things would be a lie I've seen disney I've had a mud fight and said you missed me But through every laugh through every smile i had the hospital on speed dial After 15 surgeries and about as many years my life began to change Because with every scalpel And even more taxing battles My body became mine again After three months of hospital jello And promises of it will get better tomorrow My legs finally belonged to me When i said zig they didn't say zag When my foot hit the floor i didn't wanna burst open like a chip bag It's been 12 years since my life truly began Everytime i walk in the room i hear the choirs of angels singing Because I walked into a room When i think about my life I'm not clinging to a maybe All that pain is nothing but a memory But i will not forget my journey I will never walk a straight line Or run a marathon But there are some things that i will do I will be sure my past does not define me I will not be ashamed of my disability I will tell the world my story Cerebral Palsy is not a disease When you walk down the street and see me there is no need to flea No you will not feel sorry for me Cerebral Palsy is not a burden It's a challenge IT is a struggle But it is one i happily will carry because this is who i am

When you were five Your mom told you you could do anything That you could reach new heights That the stars were just a mile marker Your life was just beginning That you were unstoppable My pep talk was a little different You see no matter how high my heart soared My body was scarred My mamma said you can walk today That sitting up won't feel as bad today That the scar down my back was my beauty mark That one day it may even be my trademark Well that might be true mamma but i don't need a trademark i need a childhood One full of sticky fingers and princess stickers One of training wheels and a smile made of orange peels To say i never had these things would be a lie I've seen disney I've had a mud fight and said you missed me But through every laugh through every smile i had the hospital on speed dial After 15 surgeries and about as many years my life began to change Because with every scalpel And even more taxing battles My body became mine again After three months of hospital jello And promises of it will get better tomorrow My legs finally belonged to me When i said zig they didn't say zag When my foot hit the floor i didn't wanna burst open like a chip bag It's been 12 years since my life truly began Everytime i walk in the room i hear the choirs of angels singing Because I walked into a room When i think about my life I'm not clinging to a maybe All that pain is nothing but a memory But i will not forget my journey I will never walk a straight line Or run a marathon But there are some things that i will do I will be sure my past does not define me I will not be ashamed of my disability I will tell the world my story Cerebral Palsy is not a disease When you walk down the street and see me there is no need to flea No you will not feel sorry for me Cerebral Palsy is not a burden It's a challenge IT is a struggle But it is one i happily will carry because this is who i am

Spare me from suburbia. I hate the chatter. And the cookie cutter houses. And people worrying about what shade of Estee Lauder they need to look 20 years younger. The bigger the SUV ...the better. Yeah that's my saying too. Oh yes it's Doggy Spa day! yippee. Freakin morons. Put your Gucci shades back on quick before you get to the underpass and see the man who fought for your freedom so that you can enjoy your Sushi on the right side of town, begging for anything you can spare. But thats right you have nothing to give, do you. I mean you couldn't possibly dip into the college fund for little Jessica, who by the way is snorting blow as we speak, in the projects across the tracks, while you think she is attending the high school pep rally, as all good cheerleaders do. And you might want to slow down just a little bit, because if you reach your hubby's highrise office even just one minute ahead of schedule, Candy won't have time to push her skirt back down, wipe her mouth, and re apply her reading glasses, before you enter...and that would be a bit uncomfortable , don't you think? Maybe you just better turn around altogether and head back to suburbia baby! There's a reason you are called a stay-at-home mom. It's the safest place for you...trust me. Reality causes varicose veins and then you would need emergency laser surgery to correct it, which would interefere with your PTA meeting this afternoon.

3 Story Houses
i turn the volume up, just like any other day, "don't be wrong anymore," to his heart he says. she's doing the same pep talk somewhere out there, swaying to the music, i just couldn't care. cause your words are lullabies that puts me at ease, and envelops my soul against the cold breeze. in the calmest mountains, to you i melt, through the wildest storms, your fire is felt. and for every time i doubt and ask for a hint, your love bursts in me like a million soaked mints. threading oceans for you could never be wrong, but if that's foolish, i'll just sing to this song.

I would like to ask you Russos, why Tony Stark is dead? And who the **** dropped you both on the head? Cap needs to apologise and his found family, Nat needs less lies and strong female company. Thor’s depression should not be overlooked And where the **** did Pep learn to cook? Stop letting Fury traumatise a child, And for once let hope do something wild. Stop dropping our favourite characters off cliffs Stop saying you’ll fix it in ‘what if’. Strange’s PTSD could not be cured by magic And yes Clint’s story is tragic, But that does not excuse his ****** spree. Why aren’t more characters more like Rhodey? Maybe try reading the comics your work should be based on And we’ll try ignoring your obvious hard on, For self-insert fanfiction with you as the token gay character. Because representation doesn’t fit your parameter. For all your stories I have one simple wish; Stop making us cry over ******* like this.

Endgame problems
NJROTC is the one thing that made me feel confident in who I was, now it is gone. There will be no ROTC next year, most people don’t care, but the people who worked their butts off are hurting. We work all year round, constantly training and bettering ourselves. The funny thing about all of this is the fact that we all new it was coming, we just didn’t know how soon. People don’t care and I don’t expect them to but I hope people realize that having that program changed the school for the better and the cadets in it. We weren’t perfect we had our days where we just wanted to give up. We have had rocks thrown at us, yet we stood firm. We have been made fun of and still are but that never once took an ounce of pride from our hearts. I will not be here I graduate in May, so people wonder why I am so upset. I am upset because I have personally worked with every cadet who wanted to be something, I have been there when we won first place titles, I have been there for the most hilarious fails, I have been there for the biggest wins in the smallest ways. Regardless of when or where I have been there! I have seen them at there best and worst, I have given pep talks at meets that have changed the outcome within the blink of an eye. You can’t understand what it is like to be in a program like this if you aren’t in it. In the eyes of the Juniors everything they have worked for for three years have just been ripped from their hands, they don’t know how to handle something like this, neither do I. ROTC made these kids who they are, it has shaped me into the strong, confident and intelligent woman I am. How do I look them straight into the eyes and tell them it is gonna be okay when I myself don’t even believe that? I will walk out of high school with only one regret, that I didn’t prepare them properly for this hit. I have lead and prepared them for everything but this, could it be true? Is this it? It is………..

What I want For Christmas is Just the barest Of necessities All my teeth Not just two So when I eat I can chew A skip and jump Back in my step So each morning I have some pep A pair of glasses Which self defrost A set of keys Which don’t get lost All my hair Put back in place So I don’t have That barren space A pair of shoes With self tie laces So I don’t have to Reach those places A set of arteries That don’t plug A nice cold beer Which I can chug To have someone My brain equip With that new fangled Memory chip So it can tell me My intent When I stood up And why I went A bunch of prunes Which are pre dated To work just when I’m constipated A gizmo that will So to speak Turn off my wee wee’s Little leak So I don’t have I’ll just be blunt Those little dribbles In the front A cork that fits My *** hole, please So hemorrhoids don’t pop out Whenever I sneeze A longer arm That would pass Behind my back To wipe my *** On this I’ll end My little list I don’t want Santa To get ****** BOEMS BY JA 103

MY CHRISTMAS NEEDS
Dear Sister's,                   I remember when you arrived on that very first day. You looked really sad and had nothing to say. The pain in your eyes told your story all to well. But I knew in my heart you still had a story to tell. When I looked at your face I could your pain. Because what you held inside could drive a sane man insane. You have seen and did a lot of things. Some of them bad. Some of what you did would make a happy person sad. But let me tell you this sister's. Do not despair. Now that your changing your life you are going somewhere. You have told your story and freed your soul. So put the bad things behind you because now they are old. Now you have pep in your step and your swagger is back. And in a matter of time there will be nothing you'll lack. You are beautiful human beings and you deserve the best. And so far lady's you have past the test. So keep pushin' my sister's. Don't stop tryin'. You already shed your tears. So now you can stop cryin'. By the grace of God you have gone through the fire. If someone tells you different they're a bold face liar. So from the bottom of my heart I know you'll recover. Sincerely yours. Your recovery brother.    c. R. Mendoza

A letter to my recovery sisters
Two hearts box it out Ding! They're off! Hard Heart puts up a good fight! Sweet Heart dodges the blows Oh! Looks like Hard Heart is gaining momentum Look at him go! Sweet Heart pounds in place Pow! Sweet Heart is down on the floor! One...two...three.... She's back! And throws a sucker punch! Hard Heart is thrown for a loop! One...two...three.... Look at him rebound! Back up! And fiercer than ever! Sweet Heart is wearing thin! A couple more rounds... Sweet Heart gets a pep talk... Go for the center! Aim hard! Sweet Heart is back to the challenge! But try as she may Hard Heart is extra cold His belly tough as steel! A few more punches, and Referee calls it Hard Heart wins!!! Sweet Heart, tired and panting, acknowledges her defeat and walks away Hard Heart raises himself up to a thunderous crowd!!!!!!!!! But the look on his face! Is he wearing soft? Suddenly, he feels dejected and somehow he find the trophy of loneliness isn't that sweet after all

Nine Rounds (Hard Heart verses Sweet Heart)
If you wish to win your man’s heart somehow Show interest rolling your admiring eyes, As he raves over the pet subjects of his choice, Occasionally responding to what he says Simulate keenness, though you don’t have it When he prates over his job and its challenges Pep up his confidence through words of concern Make him feel, you are there to share his tensions A wife’s pleasing demeanor and care Can ease a man’s life and his blues As filtering sunlight melts the mists That hides the meadow’s lovely blooms Know his favorite food and the cuisine he loves Prepare them oftener than he can expect The easiest way to get into a man’s heart Is through gratifying and titillating his palate Though he may show disinterest in flattery Compliment him over the ‘great things’ he has done You’ll see his former stance suddenly changed Through praise, sure, his heart you have won In the privacy of your closet on cool, starlit nights Lie closer to him, even feigning false passion As a flower bares its perfumed heart to the bee Give yourself completely to him sans restriction Thus win him through the magic of wooing Delight him with your soft whispers of crooning Never forget to take care of your grooming And sure, day by day you will see your love blooming
