The Chair

Julian Orillac

Grade Twelve

The Browning School

I sat on the chair like trash in a dumpster

Unkempt by the world around through no fault of my own.

While Society went around its business,

I sat there

Sitting sitting

Sitting

Then,

I stood up

I saw Polaris,

The Dipper,

Sirius,

All the rest,

The entire universe expanding upon itself

Growing larger and faster every instant

Then the world over inflated and

Popped

Since all of interest is nothing more than a blip

Then,

I sat on the chair like trash in a recycling bin,

Uncaring for Society

More interested in blues than hues

More interested in diversity than disparity

More interested in a few folk arguing in a room

Than one man with a gun stepping in,

This time though,

I just sat.
