Black Box
Did I ever mention?
I break in hives to food
Pizza, cereal, chicken, salad
Fruit and veggies
Green giants
It’s too much
I’ve seen the truth
And what I found
Were rotten
I have no flaws
I have no expectations
For coloring
Or singing
Did you notice?
Made of bones
Muscles & skin
Me, and myself belong in my box
But you like your boxes
Have them
Scar them with
Geek, bully, china doll,
Wimp, dumb jock, Brainiac
Pick anyone
The box you like, Jade
Don’t put me in one, hun
Believe me
I won’t fit
