  I know this one isn't well written. I know its stupid. But frankly...I don't care. Note the massive amounts of sarcasm. Enjoy.


Hello World, how are you?
I hope you're feeling swell.
                  
             Cut the crap, Child.
             See the truth.

Your lies are looking
Mighty tasty, this lovely afternoon.
Care if I munch?
  
             I love you, Baby.

Oh, thank you world!
Ouch! I fear I'm becoming addicted.

             Let me feed you my fire, Baby.
             Bathe in my filth.

Why, World, do you gaze at me so?
I am afraid. The lust pains me so.

            They hold your precious Innocence, Baby.

Oh World, don't...
            
            Hah. Another day, another joy murdered.

I love the way you wrote this poem
Very interesting Carly.  
You speak the truth here.
The world is cruel sometimes.
I hope all is well or at least gets better soon

Whoa... this poem had me saying "oooh, burn" all the way through.
I suppose that the world CAN be a smartass.  I never saw it that way before.
Great job, Carly!  I ~love~ sarcastic poetry.  There isn't enough of it around today.
Hehe... great job again!  This is our world, the sarcastic ass.

This style reminded me of red riding hood and the wolf........."come closer child"....."why grandma"...."to see you better"....
Yea......I liked this one. Nice carly.



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

I won't thrash this. Not at all. Frankly, I love the sarcastic tone, the world deserves it. It's always lashing out at us, right? hehehe No, seriously, I liked this.
