I got this thing in the mail,
Its, wow, a form to college,
I signed up for this info,
I want to off to college someday,
But theres this thing about what if i dont make it,
So I sent away one of my poems,
To this place the call Knox,
A college down south,
Not really just south of me,
In a place they call indy for indiana,
What a beautiful name,
Im scared,
They reply and im told to send more,
They want to evaluate my poems and see how i write,
My topics are heart felt they say,
I sit here at night and wonder why,
I am the one who gets so lucky.

Yeah, I've heard really good things about Knox's creative writing major. And it's nice to see you back

Nice one branden!
Yea...i've never put my stuff in any contests or anything like that. I'm not up for that yet. The only people who see my poems are YOU guys and maybe a random kid or two from school when I feel like I need some feedback.
So yea........but I wish you luck pal!
