Casper That's the name they gave me The intentions weren't friendly They used it mockingly Albeit creatively Because my skin was alabaster pasty, I was Jack Skelington skinny And, apparently, My blond hair and blue eyes weren't manly So then, I embraced it and turned it on them ceremoniously No more Casper the Friendly, Just Casper the Deadly Turned to the ghost that gave nightmares to Freddy Made the devil look heavenly That persona went at any and every enemy But now that I'm 40 I've let that part of me leave me Though it was the only part of me that believed in me The scratched up side of my flipped penny ...I miss is secretly... ©2024
