Practically triplets (by micah)

I thought that “Practically triplets” was a stirring poem about how when you grow up you sometimes grow apart and how she felt by that. I feel that she felt hurt by her “friends” for abandoning her; she even hides herself under the water so they don’t laugh at her. I can tell that they’ve been separated by body image not a disagreement like (to quote mark) “I like the tomato sandwiches, but you like cheese.”

I can personally connect to this poem because I drifted away from my ‘bestest one and only super duper fwend’ and adopted a few new ones. Luckily for me (and hopefully for Hallie Hertz) I have made lots of new ones and am friends again with the one I drifted away from
