ENEMIES EYES

I could see my reflection

In your eyes

If they weren't so lowered with anger.

I know what I am loved for by people

Who love me.

But what am I hated for by people who hate me?

Or perhaps not hate me, 

They merely find something offensive

About my personality.

What about me is it 

That grinds against their grain?

Au rebours?

 

It floods them with rage.

They growl with anger.

Their fists clench.

I wonder and look.

Envy

Pure and simple. The easiest way to make an enemy is to be something they cannot be.

I Have Decided

It is my fro. They think I'm coming to get their guns and steal the minds of their kids. They are wise to hate me. I want to rule the world and take all the powwe (or was that a nightmare I had once?) hmmmm. I like this poem. It's my personality and big mouth, I sure :D. ~ A ~
