I really wanted to upload this poem but I had to pick a sub-category and there was nothing for "original works" so I just picked this because I had to.
Who is that person I see in the mirror?
Two hideously large ears that could rival that of Dumbo
The pudgy round cheeks that do nothing to enhance the face
Those awful rosy pink lips that are always in need of Chap Stick
Eyebrows that would make a caterpillar jealous
Two glassy blue eyes that hold a painful past
Twenty-four semi-straightened teeth were once stuck to six thousand dollars worth of metal for three years
Skin that is covered in peach fuzz and accentuated by the lovely zits of teenage acne
The sorrowful mop of brown hair that is never more than a tangled mess day after day
The only thing remotely fashionable about this hideous monster are the designer glasses sitting atop the ski-jump of a nose and casting a shadow over those glassy blue eyes that wish to hide from the world
So, who is this ugly mug in the mirror?
Why, it's me
A creature composed of so many horrendous imperfections
To make me
Absolutely
Positively
Perfect
I have no idea what anyone will think of this. It really has nothing to do with familiar shows or whatever so I'm wondering if anyone will even end up reading this. Either way, this is a part of who I am. My inspiration I guess was when I finally came to terms with how I looked (that sounds a bit vain actually). But I think it is true for all people. I think that a lot of people single out a bunch of features that they hate about themselves and don't look at the big picture and (more importantly) who they are inside. Anyway, please rate and review!
