CEE

As I lay amid the rubble
Of Life’s train untracked
Having jumped the rails as Ronnie was sworn
And wanting to tell how that felt
In a way which didn’t make others file me under
“C” for “Crybaby”,
I toyed with what would have been
A Very Long story
About a group of (4?) (6?) (7?) friends
Who went off to college, together
One located in an uninhabitable part of Oregon
As I didn’t want to have to do any research
Or, I wouldn’t have dropped out in the first place,
The friends
Alienated by a world none could negotiate
Each in their own, dysfunctional, existential way,
One by one, dropped out
Before frosh year had passed;
I never got very far with it,
I had only my own experience to draw from
And I didn’t have six or seven reasons “why”
And very few kids from my class
Washed out, when we went away
And the few who did, besides Me
Were losers
