Between us no love lost
Sitting there with her legs crossed
Chewing gum
Like she’s in the slum
Silent war has begun
She saunters home with straight A’s
I stagger back with heavy C’s
She’s nimble on her feet
To put it simply: I’m heavy
She’s good with her hands
I just can’t settle down to anything
They all love her
They can’t stand me
She’s sweet, I’m a twit
She’s as radiant as I am vagrant
She loves flowers, I think its girlish silliness
She’s slender and as light as a feather,
I’m as dumpy and as light as lead
Different we are like light and darkness,
From the same womb, on the same day
We are two totally different girls
I HATE her.

Nice rhytms, man!
ReplyDeleteI swear you would win the Norma Prize with a poem as engaging and vivacious as this.
I wish I wrote this!
I meant rhythms, sorry...
