SIXTEEN   IN   SEPTEMBER
by Bridgette Chabot
Age: 16

everyone by their own family-fly
the street whispers killing sprees
bodies stare to shock, eye to eye
a mix of heart and spilled blood
Pour onto perfumed pink paper
searching for the inked answers
and left with humanities questions
all started with "why"?
kickboxers lay fat in death
hamburgers grow salminilia
porno stars go hungry with envy
and my ice melts into hot tea
working fifty jobs a day
mustered with lacy tears pouring
-- onto perfumed pink paper --
i write and i ask why
