Sierra with the Dora Haircut, Victoria Zickas

I’m not sure why,

But i can’t stop thinking

About this one girl from

Elementary school

I’m not sure why,

But I remember

The school's counselor

Came to our classroom

I’m not sure why,

But we sat in a circle

Taking turns speaking

Yet Sierra stayed quiet

I’m not sure why,

But the counselor was

Very stern, I didn’t even

Know what was happening

I’m not sure why,

But the girls lied

Saying they didn’t do

Or say anything

I’m not sure why,

But I didn’t see her

After that, she kinda

Just disappeared

I’m not sure why,

But my last memory

Of Sierra is her on the bus

Pants slouched, ass almost out

I’m not sure why,

But I still remember

Sierra’s Dora haircut

I don’t remember anything else
