Not a Poem
This is not a poem.
I don't even know
Why I'm writing this.
My poem "Chatter Shatter"
Just suddenly disappeared.
It goes like this,
"In small towns, there are big gossips
Streaming down the river of lies,
Fueling the smallest of minds,
These are spread, often contagious,
Watch out for the symptoms,
Make no one suspicious,
Words embedded in these lies travel fast,
Perhaps, faster than their minds could grasp,
Often times, people chatter so loud,
Oh, this town! It’s never sound,
Your skin? Too dark! Too pale!
Worry not! Pills are always for sale!
You’re too thick! Too thin!
Quick! Find an unhealthy diet routine!
Stick with these tips and tricks,
Otherwise, you won’t fit in,
You screamed, Kindness and Individuality!
Oh, dear! I truly am sorry.
We only accept conventional standards in this society."
WHY DID IT DISAPPEAR?
