Time to Adapt
by Rebecca Sutton, Class of 2021
I discovered new bands and listened to them all night
Too bad concerts are pretty much out of sight
I listen to the same CD all of the time
That band from England and their perfect rhymes
I’ve never gotten more sleep in my life
My exhaustion results from a different kind of strife
I think I lost weight but I really don’t know
I indulged on peanut butter cups while watching the snow
I got an an infection of a different kind
A second ear piercing sounded better in my mind
I bought new makeup that I rarely use
The same applies for my sandals and shoes
I simply love going to the grocery store
Just last year I thought it was such a bore
There’s nostalgia for times before I was born
And nostalgia for times I always used to scorn
