— Cecilia Lopez Oh I Believe in Yesterday or: It Feels Just Like Kindergarten
Curiosity killed the cat?
If so, then put me out of my misery.
It’s dark and it feels just like Kindergarten.
Oh, if it were just like Kindergarten
I could write her a letter with a
Yes, no, and maybe box.
Scratch that, just yes or no
Because maybe isn’t quite good enough,
And I don’t know isn’t gonna cut it either.
God give me a sign,
Please let me know.
Tell me if I’m going about this the right way
Or if I just need to go
Far, far, away; forget the troubles presented today.
Think back to yesterday
When all my troubles seemed so far away.
But, now it looks as if they’re here to stay.
Why, we, go how we go?
I don’t know, He wouldn’t say.
At least tell me what the point of a “mixer” is.
Cause I don’t know of anything good coming out of those.
But where else am i supposed to meet Her?
Coffee shops and classrooms can only take me so far.
Some relationships need a catalyst.
Something to assist
In the chemical process.
Maybe that’s my problem?
I don’t understand the chemistry.
Eh, that’s why I’m a liberal arts major.
Too bad girls don’t want to marry Psychologists
Instead of doctors.

Hi,
I’m in your Government 301 class and I’ve always happened to read your poetry whenever I come to read the blogs; One of my favorites is “It’s One Universal Law but Two Sides to Every Story or: Limit Speed Math Height Restriction Push (A Sestina).” I used a line of it for my skype status (lol but I made sure to put it in quotes cuz plagiarism isn’t cool). Anyways, I always wanted to tell you that I think you’re really talented (lol but randomly going up to people that idk and just start talking isn’t really me). But now, I have a reason to contact you so it’s not weird! Lol do you happen to have today’s notes (April 6th)? I had to miss class to take my friend to the airport.

Van,
I really really enjoyed this one!
The time will come, give time…time.
When the wait is longer, including that anxiety, many times we value the results even more, and the results might even be better than expected. We can’t help but ask ourselves the questions, the when’s, the what if’s. In the end, the patience and waiting will be worth it! I’m telling you from experience
