Coke bottle glasses,
I'm
sitting in the corner
with my
finger up my nose, and
my
shoelaces untied again,
another day of school
with
no friends. A
social outcast,
two grades ahead in
math,
with my highwater pants,
giving meaning to pencil-
necked-geek, a dork
or so
to speak, tounge-in
cheek.
They're all sucker-punching
me, get in line for
a wedgie.
All I want and all I
need, is
someone who believes
in
me.
A song sung for underdogs,
for all the left out.
A flag
flying for losers, somewhere
in the Heavens.
The God of
ever-lasting comfort,
believed in me, loved
me
when I was faithless,
he still
died for me.
Junior High schooler
with
pencils in my pockets,
and
my Trapper Keeper busted,
spilling papers and
bookds
on the floor, not wanting
seventh grade anymore.
Another class-clown,
acting
like a goof to be accepted
by my peers,
giving meaning to pencil-
necked-geek a dork or
so
to speak, tounge in
cheek.
