Connie Webb - The Last Poem?

Before she got an “F”
On an English Paper
At college
She would write lots of poetry
Without worrying
About what anyone
Thought
And she enjoyed it immensely.

After she got the “F”
She couldn’t write anything
Without worrying
What everyone
Would think of her writing
And she wondered where
The “enjoyment”
Of self-expression went
How could an “F” have such power
To destroy her creativity
And why was she allowing
One “F”
To take all the joy of writing poetry
Away from her
And she wondered
Would her last poem
Be her last?
