Exactly

So, apparently my poem “Exactly” was chosen to be in some high school poetry anthology. This came as a surprise to me, especially because I couldn’t remember what it was about. Turns out it’s this:

Too young.

Too young for what?

Just

Too

Young.

Oh.

We keep walking.

My friend Aaron and I were supposed to be listening to conversations around school to find a good quote on which to base a poem. I guess we looked into a middle school classroom and that’s what Arron said, “too young.”
