\"Whatever\"

Practicing peace and patience is taking a toll on my sanctum

These critics fill my head with nonsense and expect me to thank them

They call me a funeral hopper

I burn myself on frozen copper

Remember when you hated me

Only because you were the one who created me

I’m too young to want to die

But this steeple these people pass me by

Call it metaphorically adultery

Just as long as nobody saw me

Why would I write such meaningless words

To be seen or to be heard

To gain attention from the passing folks

Temporary tempting false hopes

I swear to God I’m only a kid

Not knowing what to do or what I did

Last semester

whatever
