I'm suffocating here amongst this urban sprawl drowning in the fumes spewing from the mall and the Walmart down the street is throwin' add campaigns at me I go there just to save a few dollars and the shit i get in return is churned from slavery. So I wear the makeup they give me to make the boys say that i'm pretty without it im nothing Yeah, thats what they tell me. gotta look like a super model if you wanna escape this ugly hell No, its not you, its just your face. Gotta drop those few extra pounds to fit in that one size down try to shrink us all till' were pygmies. Are we fuckable now? Are we small enough now? I guess its just life in the big city walkin like clones, down the damp dirty streets. Well please dont look at me I'm nothing noteworthy.
That was fantastic! I know just how you feel and you phrased it beautifully! Peace to you and all your kind.
I love the sarcastic attitude I agree with some of the things you said though, the presentation could have been better keep it up, you have lots of potential =)
I like your poem. You are very aware of life around you for a 16 year old. Keep at it, don't ever take your eyes off of the core of truth when it gets too depressing/scary/cold, and you will develop into a strong artist. Most of us avoid art because the truth about the universe is scary. You'll have to learn to deal with that fear like you do any other.
thank you guys. i will definately take your words to heart and keep writing. it means a lot to me. peace and love. ~Jen
