I hate my hair,
I look like a bear,
Not a cute bear,
But one that would scare,
Children.
I wake up every day,
With my head covered in hay,
Or what looks like hay,
But who am I to say,
That .
In the mirror where I stood,
I look like I live in the hood.
I will just wear a hood.
I wish that it would,
Grow.
I try to brush it,
But that doesn’t do shit.
It’s the same color as shit,
I wish I could put it,
Up.
As I stood there and cussed,
I figured I’d trust,
A hat I can trust,
So I will just,
Leave.

Oh Julia. I know this is good because I'm sitting here reading it by myself and similing at my computer like an idiot. Hilarious.
ReplyDeleteI loved this. I can even picture how you would read it out loud. I really liked the italicized words that make up a whole other part of the poem. Great!
ReplyDeleteThis is really cool! I love the unique rhyme scheme and the one word at the end. It's really origional! I love the tone of it too.
ReplyDeleteHaha Julia I love your voice in these poems. It is so unique and entertaining.. and what you did with this one is so creative. love it!
ReplyDeleteJulia, I have read this at least four times and every time it makes me laugh! I love how you took such a common topic and turned it into something so funny. :) Great job!
ReplyDeleteJulia, this is so cute and creative! I love it :) well done.
ReplyDeleteJules I don't Know what to say:) I think the poem was very funny, but serves some point. I love the extremely unsubtle CHILDREN WHO GROW UP LEAVE. Overall great job and a very unique poem.
ReplyDeleteI agree with dj casper! I like the interplay of cutesy rhyme with the idea of leaving.
