Cheat SheetA Poem by jacob erin-cilbertoCheat Sheet
strangely
enamored with your wicked smile, your eyes pinch my
cheeks reality is a pupil sitting within a
classroom of lashes fluttering in synthetic
solicitation while all the time a
hand raised towards mine faking as if to have an
answer,
truant students of love skip out on its true
meaning sell chagrin with those
shallow grins and suddenly, i wake up
once again having slept through to
the bell, learning nothing.
