Conflict

I hate you with your short skirts
and generic teeny bopper ways.
Drooling over BSB and NSYNC
and other carbon copies the media
forces down your trendy throats.
Hanging on Tommy and Calvin's every word
gobbling up gossip about Britney and Christina
and then vomiting up lunch.
Singing out sugar sweet tunes
and missing the sexual undertones.
Flipping your straightened hair
and giggling at the dumbest remark
just because he said it
and because you can.

You don't bother to look at me.
the black sheep in a herd of white.
I break your rules.
I defy your fashion.
I make my own decisions.
I am The American Dream.
yet I'm not.
Because America Embraces Conformity.
Skinny, sexy, trendy.
Distastefully looking at my hamburger and fries
while I glare at your
salad and diet soda
Knowing where it will end up.
HOW DARE YOU MAKE ME INFERIOR!!!
