UGLY
sonny.
by katie lynn
first SWAC fic. first freeverse in a while.
inspired by a friend of mine. in case you're wondering, she's beautiful.
–
so far so great
so much for that
in hollywood
beauty comes from a bottle,
baby's working in the BIG TIME now
bright lights and city nights
smiles made of plastic
dreams of e – l – a – s – t – i – c
baby's gotta keep up
(WANT to be beautiful)
mommy cooks dinner
and baby can smell the calories
the taste of cream sauce on her tongue::
SNAP! goes the rubber band
strands of pasta, heavy with -
"NO!" SSSNAPPP (goestherubberband)
baby doesn't even make a sound
tawni hart-less says she's
IMPRESSED
but (baby could do more)
why can't you push yourself harder, ALLISON?
why are you so fucking ugly, ALLISON?
ANSWERME.
&baby pushes harder
prince notsocharming thinks
he lessthanthrees her
but does he really?
'cause he doesn't even notice the scars
or blood-stained tissues falling from her pocket
the (sun) doesn't shine on condor studios anymore
because the sun lost its color
baby wants to l a u g h : )
that's what she SUPPOSED to do
but it's hard to laugh
when all you wanna do is CRY
screamyellbreakshatter
STARVE.
you are SO fucking stupid, ALLISON.
are you really gonna eat that, ALLISON?
baby smiles:) when the scale reads eighty
surrender to the porcelain angel
slumped on the floor
convinced by the *mirror's lies
baby's gotten her prize
(at the end, the prettiest one d i e s)
