Short
Something that has been cast unto me A Catastrophe for all to see
I am short
Or shall I retort
Smaller than all
No sports for me not athletically gifted you see Slip through a crowd, sure maybe
Brains over Bronze
Good in the long run not the short If you’re tall you can play ball
I just really want to play ball That’s all
Last pick
First’s dad is a tall hick
Sure i’m bright but bright surrounded by dull
When the dull is brighter than the light then there is no fight And so I stand
Short

I made this piece in class we were writing about how one time we felt different or not included, this piece demonstrates how I’ve always been “penalized” in this way.
