we had to write poetry in english class, and this is one of the one's i wrote. my class really liked it, but i'm not sure if it's any good. feedback?
B. I. T. C. H.
the letters draw across her arm
flashing red- she raises the blade
she barely flinches as the razor embeds itself into
her pale white skin
W. H. O. R. E.
it’s the only thing that belongs there
marking her identity- anyone could see it but
no one will. she waits for the cool drops of crimson to trickle
onto the fresh page in front of her
F. A. G.
it’s only three letters this time
enough to tell the story of her life-
loser, loserer, loserest. she watches as it spreads
a spot of red staining the timeline
C. R. O. W.
she hears its call. Insistent.
Persistent. “It is time” she hears, and it’s all she needs
she lifts the blade, breathes deeply,
she screams
she wins
