Blissful
by Maggie Clark
Bliss is a chemical created by the warm air
in late May
in small batches to be rationed out
over the following months.
First
it is inhaled next
it travels swiftly to your brain,
aiming to numb the senses,
while targeting your dopamine receptors
and flooding them.
and what else is there to feel
but
good, while
your happiness centers are drowning
and what else is there to do
but
welcome
the addictive substance and
try to capture it in a bottle so
later you can cut yourself open and
pour it directly into
your veins.

Beyonce Carter
has blessed this world with her twins.
We are not worthy.
Grades- a tanka by Maggie Clark
Midterms are this week.
Time to break out the champagne
to celebrate moi
and my fairly average grades.
Pray my gpa won’t tank.
