The merry-go-round
goes round and round
The children laugh and play
and the summer gets
hotter and hotter every new day
the children are at play
and one day
the children break
a leg and the parents say
"No more Play!

but I'm not evil

I will help you,
even if you hurt me too

I want to protect you,

P.S: I don't actually care
I just wanted you to prepare
For if you are not ready
You will have to grab on to your teddy
In the next 1000 years, when I have ascended
I will rain hell on those who have offended

Oldest child

I am the oldest child

I have the most responsibilities

You may say I’m bossy

but my how many times has my “bossyness” saved you?

When you do something bad I have a choice:

Tell on you - or let it be.

The tattle-tailing works for the little one and the middle one

But not for me

I get that you want to be like me

I understand your job

is to annoy me

But it gets old fast

I start like peaceful clock

but when you turn me to the hour by telling me I am bossy

I make a big dinging sound and I shatter glass

As the oldest I protect you from trouble

I try to stop when something bad happens

I stand up for you over little things

What you call bossy is me helping you even if you don’t know I am

You may not like it

You may not take it

But I want you to strive so just listen

I am the oldest and I protect you

I do not boss you to make you miserable

I tell you things that I made mistakes on that you could learn from

Wether you choose to listen to my “bossyness” is up to you

But all I want is for you to be the best possible you

((( this is near the middle of my poem )))

How do you transform  society

to stop profiting off Perfect Bodies

I am not a socially-accepted body.

My body - My soul,

I don’t fit the mold

of having a certain weight

of having certain ideal shapes of

Legs

Nose

Stomach

Eyebrows

Mi cuerpo - Mi alma,

is not what society seeks.

It's brown as the sweet

hot chocolate on cold nights.

It's as large as soft conchas,

pan dulces we eat together.

All of Me

I have a question that is a statement

I can feel the world around me

It’s itchy, scratchy, noisy, and overwhelming

Anxiety and sadness can consume me

Tears can flow but when they are gone

Happiness takes over and I love everyone

Emotions do not define me

I just want everyone to understand me

And that I am like everyone

I am a female.

I am strong.

I don't have big muscles,
but I have a strong mind.

Nobody's words can cut me down

No one can tell me that a male is better.

My wrath is unexplainable

when someone dares to utter

“Adelaide, you must get a husband
and stay at home.

I should be able to choose

what happens in my life

Not

You.

I will excel past your greedy expectations.

Don't be afraid

I will change the world

I will make my mark.

So go ahead, tell me that i am nothing

And i will prove to you, that i am

Everything

Men have to protect their families.

Men have to be big and strong.

Women have to clean and cook.

Men can't wear dresses.

Women can't wear suits.

You can't cut your hair like that.

You were born a girl.

You can't be a boy.

I can be a boy.

I am a boy.

I can wear dresses.

I can do what you can.

I am normal.

I am me.

They are strong.

They are normal.

They can do anything.

They are you.

Listen,

You are plenty

You are enough

Just because you are the oldest child

Doesn’t mean you have to take care

Of the immature younger siblings

Tell the parents to go on a date another day

Tell them to go shopping another time

Listen,

You are a huge help

You are adequate

Thanks for babysitting your siblings

But please

Go hang out with friends

Go play a sport

Have fun for goodness sake

You are not going to let them do this to you

just because you are the oldest child

It’s time to take a break

My ears are small but my appetite is big.

My legs are long but attention span is short

I thought this would get better but i am afraid it is getting worse

Yup that's me,

the girl who you think isn't smart

Because the color of her hair.

Like come on, Let's be fair.

Don't judge a book by its cover.

Every hair color, size, looks, insecurities

Is beautiful.

Understand that y'all.

Yep, that's also me

who is apparently only supposed to

“Cook, clean, and raise children.”

Let's be fair.

There’s no one way

To be a woman or a girl

Every hair color, looks, size

Is beautiful.

Understand that y'all.

There's me

Who apparently is not capable

Of most things because of my gender.

I am Not replaceable.

So treat me better.

I am unique, beautiful, kind and intelligent.

My gender/hair color/size/looks have nothing to do with who I am as a person.

Don't be irrelevant.

Please remember that before you judge anyone.

I am proud of who I am and who I have become.

Do not try to bring me down..

It will never work, clown.

I will do what i want when i want, i'm not going to let you walk all over me.

Please respect me.

# data[].attributes.body
You chose to judge me on how I look before you even get to know me

Before you see that I so much more than what is on the outside

Well that is your loss you chose to be so shallow and only see what is on the surface instead of what is underneath you are losing out on getting to know me and that is really sad for you.

I know because of my blonde hair
I am stereotypically supposed to be dumb
But no one can tell me what I can or can't be
I know it might be funny to some
But being told your showing your "blonde roots"
Like oh my gosh that doesn't mean I am not smart
Because I am not the way "smart people" look
So how's that for showing "blonde roots"

Listen,

I shouldn’t need the perfect legs

I don’t have to have the perfect silky hair

I don’t need the perfect golden tan

I look in the mirror and admire gladly

at the unique hair, face, and

body that reflects

I won’t tweak my body

for somebody else,

I am uncommon and

will not change.

we throw your happiness into the furnace just like a messed up doll
quite enjoyable for us not for you

that pounding you feel is us depression and anxiety
i depression make you isolate yourself. i make you cry. I make you feel unloved and i fuel anxiety and me

i am anxiety
i make you stress and cry you know simple feels but i make you question yourself. i make you terrified. i give you MANY scary ideas when you're around people.

we are like siblings but not really.
we enjoy seeing you suffer. see you never know WHEN we will mess with you. we are like that one unexpected stormy day in a week of only sunny days

we give you panic attacks. we take your air. just like that olivia rodrigo song we give you deja vu. we remind you of all your worst moments.

all your happiness
all your laughs
your smiles
if you haven't understood
we are that feeling you get when all the memories of your baby self are gone, poof gone.

happiness is our enemy
you HAVE to understand
we are just those two feelings

Flowy hair

Skinny body

Perfect face

You thrive in the rain

I am Ben

I am a fat shadow

Following my master’s every move

Slow moving and sweet like syrup

Sitting on his lap in the morning and sleeping by his side at night

I am like the moon, big, round and always circling around my master, the sun

Jumping on his lap whilst he's on zoom calls, listening to his teachers say my name

My master is my feeder, filling my belly every night and day

All while I sit like a king on my stool watching my master at work

I am a big beach ball

Bouncing up ever so slightly when I hit the ground

So round you think you can pop me

I am like puddy

My girth spilling over when I settle

Jiggling when I move

My purr is as loud as a jet engine

Keeping my master up at night

Always requiring him to turn up the television volume during his favourite programs

I am motivated by food

Always perking up from the deepest of sleeps when I hear the creaking of the pantry door

Acting cute to my feeder so he’ll give in and feed me treats

My master is my feeder for which I very grateful

I am Ben

I am the dandelion to your wish

I am the model for your glamorous attire

What about deep down

Something that’s invisibly still there.

Not physical, but emotional
