    • Poetry: Embarrassing Poems Mrs. Ram Jam Wrote in Middle School and High School.

      Posted at 10:52 pm by Jeddarae, on June 15, 2018

      Like many teachers on summer vacation, I’m in the middle of deep cleaning my house and purging accumulated household clutter.

      Yesterday, I came across a red folder that my mom had sent me awhile ago.  In it, I found some of my EARLY poetry.  My best guess is it’s from middle school based off grammatical/mechanical/capitalization errors, ridiculous penmanship techniques, and the yellowed tinted loose leaf.

      Because I feel like embarrassing myself this week, please take a gander.

      Who the hell was I writing this poem about?  Why did I think it was cool to make circles above my i’s? Did I think that dreams and stars flew back then?

      What’s a “cleary”?  And if I was trying to make cleary happen, I should have at least capitalized it.  Jeeze, middle school Mrs. Ram Jam, you should know the difference between your and you’re.  Why are there c’s beneath every y and g?  Those lower case e’s look like backward threes.  Ugh.  My mother never let me stay out all night with a boy whilst in middle school.  What the hell.

      P.S.  Why am I obsessed with Orion?

      Now, I’d peg these two as from high school (Check out the evolution of my scribing skills, y’all!), and they’re not gag inducing mushy gushy, so that’s a plus.

      Whew, I’m glad that’s over with.

      I know that I wrote some delightful poems growing up (THESE ARE NOT THEM; I PROMISE.  I CAN SENSE YOUR JUDGEMENT, DAMMIT). When I go visit my mom in a few weeks, I’m totally going to hunt the awesome ones down and put them on blast for personal vindication.
