“I wrote this poem at the in-person WriteGirl event at The Autry Museum. I had never been to any other WriteGirl events and I love writing poetry, so I was excited to go. One of the prompts was to find something in the museum that represents you in some way, like a self-portrait. I found a picture of California poppies. I thought it was really beautiful and I saw myself in it. I’m thankful to my mentor who helped me make this poem even better.”

“This poem was written at a WriteGirl workshop. We’re always told to break out of the box, but what we aren’t told is that around that box, there is a circle. People are OK with people who think outside the box and don’t conform – but only to a certain extent. Only if we stay inside the circle.”

“The idea behind this song is that Headphone Girl knows that people are angry at her but she doesn’t get why. She sees their faces but she doesn’t hear them. This has happened to me many times – I’m not the best with headphones!”
