Crippled Runner
I got out of bed and stayed asleep
Ate my breakfeast but didn't taste it
Combed my hair then realized my baldness
Put on my contacts though I have 20/20
Watched the broken TV
Cooked over an unlit fire
Read a bit of my blank journal
Wrote a letter with a dried up pen
Took a shower in the bath
Laced up my flipflops
And walked out the window
But that's just the way I roll
Now please tell me I'm not retarded.

Haha...that was so funny Joy! I loved it. You are very talented and super cool. I miss you lots!
Love ya!
PS - "lots" is my way of saying "a lot"..I know, kind of weird and corny...but it's something I used to do as a kid.
Lol, Joy, that was the most disturbing thing I have ever read. Make sure you write more! Disturbing is cool!

Haha. I actually got the poem idea from this other poem called "Ode to Dislexia." It was funny, and wanted to do my own.
Yeah, it sorta disturbed me too.
Uh, sorry again Grace, but do you realize that this poem is not about me for 4 reasons:
1. I am not bald
2. I have 20/420 vision
3. I don't have a TV w/ reception
4. None of my journals are blank
Isn't it obvious that this is not ME saying all this? It's just a gosh darn poem! It's not supposed to reflect my life in any way!
Ok then?
Do you kids (Grace and Joy) actually talk to each other, or is this site your only means of communication?
We sleep in the same room, so yes, we're forced to communicate outside of the internet, but it's only out of neccessity.
No, really Grace just doesn't like me, and therefor tries to foil all my attempts to be clever. >:(
Haha...its okay if she doesn't like you. I didn't like my brother for an odd number of years because he was an annoying little guy that would get me into trouble. From experience, I can you tell you this is "normal" behavior between two siblings. Sorry for the analysis, because I'm sure you know what I'm saying. Love you both!
That's how me and Katie are. Lol, but we don't have to sleep in the same room. On vacation I hate sleeping within three feet of her!
See, I just got used to it, so I don't mind anymore (I used to HATE it!).
But when Grace and I fight, she sleeps on the couch downstairs. HAHA
lol i have to share a room with my sis. Yes i have a sister and 2 brothersssssss nice poem although I found it a little crazy just like you!
Well thank you. I'm told that often.
