One of my favorite little moments from the overwhelmingly inspiring Barbie movie.

I’ll take my life in my hands

Every time I walk back into that library

Just as I have every time

I’ve watched a movie at the cinema

Since twenty-twelve

Every time I’ve grocery shopped in-store

Instead of using curbside pickup or delivery

For years now

Every time I’m a member of any crowd

Literally any crowd

I think about it

Always grateful

That at least schools weren’t this dangerous

Until my junior year at Union High

Oh, the poor kids who go there now

I wrote this poem the day after an "active shooter" scare at the library where I tutor, back in April. It really shook me up, even though it was a false alarm (kind of—I mean, there was a violent man on site and we didn't know if he was armed, so the threat was very real at the time).
