“AW.” by Jessie Sun

in ,

Web & Event Team member Jessie Sun shares a poem written in Florence last summer.

 

I got tulips from the market on my way back 

Bright orange

Surrounded by the little yellow on the edge 


I washed the beer bottle we left in

the garbage can last night

and put the tulips in 

“AW.” perfectly fit 

-

I should learn how to walk instead of getting in so many accidents every time

i am on the street

“AW.”

I hurt my knee

and my jaw 


I had some wine and went back home 

for some first- aid spray

World spinned

Am I drunk

“AW.” 

Oh, I fell

- 

Walked into a coffee shop

Espresso

Iced americano

Latte with oat


I’m not creative

That’s all I would get


“Have a good one!”

“AW. Thanks, u 2”


I always wonder if people really 

wish me a good day

Or they’re just saying  


It’s not my culture

I don’t fucking know

-

“AW.” I always just take it
