Rejection Poem by Charles Lara

Rejection



Three Rejections
in 1 day and
I can't understand
how someone
with 1/2 of brain
gets accepted
and I am left out
to lap defeat again

I remember the
first time
I was rejected
I was in 1st grade
and I made
a Valentine card
out of a
brown paper bag
and gave
it to the
prettiest Italian girl
in my class
she looked up
at me and said
I don't take no cards
from someone
who speaks Mexican
