I Easily Sunburn

Clay Kohut
I started to write
back in seventh grade
I easily sunburn
I'll stay in the shade

I'll lay in your shadow
absorbing the rays
of absolute nothing
for all of my days

and when I am older
and wrinkled and red,
and I become colder,
and when I am dead,

I'll still feel the same.

Weighing in at 10 pounds 8 ounces, I was a large baby. So large, in fact, that by the time I was 8 I had learned to walk, talk, and fly an airplane.  View profile
