And now this poem–dubbed “the worst day ever poem” by some–has grabbed everyone’s attention. Give it a read (following the instructions) and you’ll immediately get it.

And the surprises keep coming. This poem was apparently written by an 11th grade girl from Brooklyn, New York, named Chanie Gorkin. Wow.

Seriously, you should share this.  It’s too good not to. More on the story at Mashable.
