your room

Luke Bensing

This is your room

But it also isn’t really your room

So you shouldn’t be too mad

When crumbs get left behind

Or a pencil gets misplaced

By a kid who didn’t sleep in their own bed last night

By a kid who didn’t have anything to eat today until now

By a kid who smells like dad’s poor choices

So flick on that light switch with pride

They may not matter to someone but they can matter to you

    This poem leaves me with questions about which room we are talking about. A mind provoking read.
