Evelyn Jones Poet I do not know?

Barbie's Smile

Barbie’s Smile

why do they treat me like crap, you know
all of them do, always have
I'm like a plastic doll they all want to undress
and toss aside when they get tired of playing with
Barbie’s wear a permanent smile
their made to look good no matter what
they let you pose their bodies anyway you like
and they don't crack or break with pressure
other girls love them and little boys hate them
they try their best to destroy them
but no matter how hard you kick or abuse them
you'll never see Barbie cry
it's easy when you only see an object
they can't tell you when it hurts
they have no heart or feelings to crush
it's even impossible to bruise them
so when you pick up your plastic doll
the one who's always ready for you with a permanent smile
remember I'm not a toy you can molest
I'm a human being who feels hurt on the inside
and unlike Barbie
I do cry
