Funny girl

That’s me

By AJPublished 3 years ago • 1 min read

God forbid

I don’t play aloof

And let people past

Sarcasm, obnoxiously big words

Mid west emo and underground French screamo

Take a break from cigs

Or say ‘no’ to drugs

What would I even be

If not a mirrorball

the looking glass for pretty girls to shine through

And it’ll only be funny

When someone says my joke louder

Don’t worry

I won’t ask you

For help

cleaning up

the mess of me

But I’m glad

I have an

Audience

I can turn around

Put on a show

And forget that

I’m not a star-just a person

Entertaining you

Is more important

Because locking myself in a dimly lit house on the seaside and feverishly pouring my soul out on a typewriter is not available to me right now
