Freshman Poem of the Week

You have to read this one with your best slow, overly-dramatic, poetry-prof voice.

Sitting


Sitting on the couch
With friends
Opened a box of colored pencils
A nickel fell out

Sitting in the lounge
Playing euchre
A dozen orange roses
In a water bottle

Sitting in calc
On Valentine’s Day
Half a cup of cold coffee
Eraser fell in

Is this the one you wrote on a coffee cup?

I do believe you're correct! The final stanza of this poem was the first one written, on the very coffee cup described within.
