Marked Ghosts (A Found Poem)

alahna

A Found poem from the Murray Middle School's hallways
Arranged by Alahna

Some people can be very quiet 

They did not grow up with our opportunity 

While we ask a teacher or member for a rescue 

They are disciplined and marked 

Sharp, vivid images of the event  

Memories of avoiding suffocation 

They are told, 

 “Go back.” 

They need to be precise 

Or they’ll end up running for their life 

People labeled wonderers in constant movement 

The girl who could not dream 

Ghosts 

Just people held responsible for parents' action 

Held in till death is on sale
