Sonnet Yet Un-situated
Once, now long ago, you entered the room.
I hadn't planned to sit in the front row,
But finding others always sparked my gloom.
I'm not that social (though they think they know);
If I do not look at what's behind me:
Anxiety's quelled –– pretend one-on-one.
Psychology Building: Room 103 –
Not our Department. No words on Byron.
Yet, many rooms you graced over the years
Were filled with constellations and insights.
One day, I found a chair away from peers
And from this seat grasped the wick of delight.
No mockeries of flame. Almost fire.
Fuel's already set when Time transpires.
