Two Poems
Carly O’Connell
Poem #1 Up to the Sky
I took my red pen
to write my name
but nothing appeared
on the paper.
Up in the sky
each letter etched.
Why doesn’t it come down? I want to please
touch the sky.
Poem #2
How would you like it if you only could eat people?
I can only eat nothing.
People are like how it feels to be called sorry.
