Oh no

by Corey Mesler

Sup dogs? Here's our new poem! I personally selected this poem because it's cold outside and sometimes we just need something short and sweet. I want to romanticize the falling leaves and listen to some sweet music. It's cold, go jump in some leaves for me. Want to read our last book review? Check here! Missed our last creative post?

Oh no

Oh no, it’s one of those

days when all the music

sounds good and the

danger of falling in love

with the world is as

present as every last ghost.
