Ninth Grader

rushed to Wal-Mart on lunch break
after devouring three slices of mushroom onion pizza
(i was only allowed two)
bought a bunch of cheap spastic makeup
for the makeover contest i found in JANE
thinking of Saturday night

and tribal punk stripes
and a jet black liquid eyeliner star on my high
left cheekbone?
memories of ninth grade are upon me
Donny Snow and Jordan Jones
listening to the Dead Milkmen
in the science class
