Malignant

I hold this paper in my hand

my hand

My name is at the top

my name

and

in LARGE black letters

a word

one   single   word

like a stalker

Reminds me of the creepy boy

in 7th grade

following me in the halls

calling me at home

staring

at   me

this word

following     calling     staring

I want to scream at it to

GO AWAY

nine letters

Perhaps it shouldn’t bother me

many have walked this path before

this is my very first time
