“What
is a Middle Schooler?” (haikus)
middle
school students
clumsy,
awkward, and silly
opaque
yet so clear
some
are serious
some
constantly joke around
some
think they don’t care
insecurity
builds
up continuously
deep
inside of one
gossip
and rumors
move
faster than a sports car
someone
might get hit
mixed
feelings disturb
hormones
interrupt their days
changing
emotions
some
days bring laughter
other
days they want to cry
mood
swings are frightening
working
hard is hard
but
one day it will pay off
try
to be the best
academic
stress
tries
to eat up their big brains
but
happiness rules
everything’s
funny
jokes
are added to the pile
joyful
memories
middle
school is strange
but
there’s more I have to say
don’t
be judgmental
Chandu Singathi
