The teenage rebels All fall in line Be they hippies Goths, rockers or skaters Moving from one mould

A noisy restaurant Listen Focus Beyond the dishes The music

I’m watching a woman in a bikini In great shape with a swollen bell… Play with her puppy named Gatsby A Hispanic family comes The little girl dips her feet in

The more you treat me like a nag The more I become one I’m sorry if I micromanage Your clean clothes Your hot meals

My body is perfect —ly spotted The white spots I tell myself Are my Bambi spots

Steamroller Of life Passed by Feeling down Squished

Scratchy plaid blanket Red with yellow stripes Hot and itchy underneath Claustrophobia strikes Purple and blue prisms

A fresh faced country girl Who pioneers on her bicycle Catches the eye Of a transplant from Houston Love begins through letters

I know it’s for the best But it still hurts Hearing mothers complain For what I would give anything fo… My husband says no

The passive-aggressive Guilt trip Is a weak tool For your purpose The sensitive

She is no longer Part of my life I’ve moved on My life is full With friends
