Another Bad Poem
are you ready for another bad poem?
here, listen to the words i say.
because,
unlike the falsehoods you've been fed,
i will tell you the truth.
Hark! the herald angels lie.
glory to mr. lord on high.
will we bow?
No.
I am a girl, not a dog.
Not your property,
Not anyone's property.
I will not be suffocated by your
patriarchal mantra.
he fights to clear his own name.
he lies, he lies.
I will not listen.
I am among the forgotten,
a b****,
a narcissist,
an impasse in myself,
and i will bow before NO
man,
woman,
president,
or royal.
Hark! the herald angels cry
kisses to the king on high
high heaven?
high horse?
would you mind if i knocked you down a notch?
or all the way?
i curl my hair,
i paint my face.
i do it to prove to everyone
that i am one of them so they will listen to
another bad poem.
because according to HIS HIGHNESS,
this is all i am capable of.
