Alex Le Long

Lurky Lurky - Whaea Alex
They were wearing the same hoodie
They were laughing
They left them behind
Wondered
Stop copying our words
Bro I’m going to break your computer
Miss!
Typeshit Miss, Miss! Typeshit
They laughed and went for a walk
That’s what we were chatting about
You’re a lurker miss,
Lurking
Lurky Lurky!
Nazi Boy - Whaea Alex
One of the sweetest
Kindest kids
What’s on your face?
Oh….
He looks away
What IS that? she asks
trying to rub the mark away
with her thumb
He looks up and with tears in his eyes
Says, Whaea - I had to do something
Otherwise they wouldn’t let me in
But why that? she asks
He looks back over his shoulder
At the symbol on his jacket
And back at his favourite teacher
He shrugged his shoulder
Why now?
He shrugs again
Is this all there is for you?
Now? In this place?
He shrugs and turns away
She says, Wait!
He turns back and she
opens her arms
One last hug
She never sees him again
Hungry Pie - Whaea Alex
Moetu and Ina walked
to the cafe
Asking for
Whaea Alex’s keys
“I’m Hungry!”
“Hello Hungry,” Moetu laughed
And together
They walked
To get a pie
Alone and Happy - Whaea Alex
Living my best life
Sitting here
Watching my illegal phone
Listening to music in Whaea’s office
Sitting here moving my leg
Up and down
Tired
Over it
Ready to leave kura
Y13
Last few weeks
Ready to live the rest of my life
Stupid school
Over it
When is lunch?
Where are my mates?
Ugh.
I wish I was playing basketball right now
I hate that sport now
Stuff that.
Cross my leg because
Whaea Alex is listening to my words
in my head
She can hear my thoughts….
Whaaaat
Unicorn
Baseball
UGHHHHH Uh uhhhhhh
Uh no….
Ina sitting there laughing too
Moetu waiting to see if her name will pop up
Why so long miss?
Oh no don’t!
No!
Please!
Do Ina’s name!
You’re having too much fun with this miss!
