My name is Sam. I write things. I think they're pretty good. A lot of other people do too.

I Beat Up Girls Like You In Middle School

Ha!

your menial laugh

that snort emitting from a pig’s snout

found in the wrong place

Miss Piggy

sashay and scarf down some slop

all of that garbage you spew from your mouth

it’s a pity everyone hangs on your words

like whores clutch onto men

drinking them in with every ounce of energy

so that when they get them alone

it’s passive play

My hatred for you is too complex

I get off track

fuming

(did you really think I wouldn’t notice

the graffiti tattooing the stalls,

your nauseating hearts dotting and stabbing)

thinking

of all of the ways I loathe thee

(I’ve run out of limbs on which to count)

coming up with ridiculous metaphors

& similes

something biting and witty

your confusion sweetening my bitter tongue like aspartame

your stupidity leaves me tripping

like that awkward kid in the hallway

books sliding on the slick gray floor

you’d never be that kid

just the feet kicking that math book out of reach

stepping on the lunchbox

like you just landed on some unknown nerd territory

my words become a mess

shitty syllables slung onto paper

this doesn’t make any sense

you’ll always be the queen in that third dimension

I’ll be the one plotting the outcast’s revenge
