not in the mood
oh, i don't feel like writing poetry today
can i leave that in my past
too much effort
and i am hungry
but we don't eat for another two hours
so i'm leaving for the market to get a snack
but i think i'll stop by the boy instead
Explanation about the 2:30 am post:
Yeah that wasn't really me. LOL. I had sent it to Sam, my guide or whatever, and she said she was starting a blog for me and that was the first post, so I said that was fine. Where she is/the school is it was 5:30 PM the previous day, so I am NOT staying up late writing poetry again, Mum, if you're reading this...
arabic
in morocco
they write using the arabic language
and arabic numerals
and in america
and in my dad's office
they write using the english language
and arabic numerals
so hopefully i'll still have some of morroco at school
i can write my arabic numerals and remember
i once wrote using the arabic language
i once spoke using the arabic language
i could get an amazing job, my father says
because i can speak arabic and english (just like him)
i say, that must suck, having to fight terrorists
i don't wish to know any
and all my arabic friends are nice
i don't want to live with the prejudice of america
will it rub off on me too?
