Disrespectful.
That's what it was.
Disrespectful.

Idiotic too.
To think I wouldn't notice.

To think you could leave all traces
of your idiocy
at the door.

Unbelievable.

I mean,
you tell me that:

all you care about is graduation.
That you must graduate.
That you will make smart decisions, because
all you care about is graduation.

So...
um...

where does what you did fit into your plan?

Where does
disrespectful
idiocy
show up in your plan
to make sure you graduate?

You better make your actions
match your intentions.

'Cause right now,
all you're showing me is
that you don't give
a shit
about graduating.

Paradise Lost--Jaded Haikus

A shared paradise--
thought unattainable, but
once had been embraced.

Hugged close to our chests,
like the fragile infant it
was, nurtured and safe.

We rejoiced in the
lilting symphony of its
ever-laughing gaze.

But not forever.
Instead a sunset meets our
glance with deep dismay.

Gold glow is fading--
innocence lost, unruly
teens caught in a maze.

Our paradise lost,
as anger plunders what was
once our treasured place.
