Landon’s Fine Poetry

Twas the night before Friday

And I, in my dorm,

Was sleeping quite nicely–

Nothing out of the norm.

Lost in my slumber

Curled up, so alone

Hugging my pillow

On memory foam.

Amid pleasant dreams

I had to awake,

TO A 5.2 MAGNITUDE, ROCK THE CONCRETE WALLS, SHAKE MY BED, SCARE THE DAYLIGHTS OUT OF ME, HEART RACING, I DON’T LIVE IN CALIFORNIA SO WHY IS THIS HAPPENING AT 4:20 IN THE MORNING……

Mid-west Earthquake.
