A Wallflower I am (Found Poem)

This is our friend Charlie,

I feel visible

The room was very quite smoky

I was the youngest, and I am known to have once a beer

And I just didn’t like it.

 

I am a freshmen, and I don’t now just yet

I saw Bob passing around food.

Would you like a brownie?

Yes. Thank You.

 

Thirty minutes, the room started to slip away from me.

I started blinking a lot and looking around, and the music sounded heavy like water.

 

“Are you seeing anything Charlie?” Sam said

“Light.”

I don’t think they would have laughed any harder

And everyone in the room erupted in laughter, “He’s stoned”.
