![]() PowerpointsA Poem by R.E.K.![]() College-drama-pain![]() Presentations On Topic of our choice Sat through Power-points And posters depicting Issues with Vaccinating, Debt, Four on the negative Effects of Technology, One on The ramifications of ADHD At least four On eating disorders And body image, At least three more on Mental Illness, There were Three on addiction, Another on Trauma therapy... And I'm glad I sat in the front For I felt everyone's eyes on me And I'm glad that I made it through My panic attack only occurring Internally, And I'm glad I found peace In the air thick with Shame and worlds of pain All slithering from My memory... And I'm glad I was able to Muster the maturity To calculate That I'm more real than a statistic More beautiful than a piece of poetry... They can Research all of my sicknesses As their topic of interest But they cannot capture me And all of my struggle And all of my battles My soul, In a power-point In a bibliography, And I also Was able to Take a moment See that It's not all about Me, Their topic Was something They felt Connected to For some reason Or another, And I shouldn't be So quick to judge, What do I know? For they no doubt Don't know everything About me.
