You know,
I used to pride myself
On being the very opinionated person I was.
No one could possibly think like me.
If there is someone,
I haven't fucking met 'em.
Then the discussion came up.
Well really it was after the discussion went down.
Loud in front of judgmental people,
I argued.
Then got my nerves all shook up
And my leg did that freakish thing it does
When it starts twitching.
Pissed as I was,
I felt great knowing that others knew
Just how I felt
On this rather touchy subject.
Later ma came home
And I brought it up again.
I really was hoping she'd say what I wanted.
I was stunned to see she didn't.
Fast forward through examples,
Praise,
And singing.
(No that wasn't me)
And I find myself
In my room
Staring at the mirror.
My shirt and undergarments
Near my feet,
I cringe embarrassed
And itchy.
IMMORAL HEATHEN.
And it won't come off.
