"What the flute" -Johnny Suh


my hands fisted, knuckles curled

veins popping out

my lips unfurled

 

i spoke loud as can be

feeling hearing seeing,

i was free

 

hair flying through the wind

pink skies setting around me

all my layers have been skinned

 

it’s just me

driving down eastern parkway

learning how to see

This poem reflects my love for driving and feeling free. I am a senior in Louisville, KY and I love my city and it will always be my home.
