Goldfish Shadormas

Smile, say cheese

Look to camera, teeth wide

hold it there

cheeks burning

But what if she dropped the mask?

Look away and frown.

 

Fix your hair.

Not big enough, girl.

Thin enough

Good enough

Not enough, don’t you try to

put a fish on land.

 

You have it.

When the world needs it

more than ever;

Look to the

mirror, can’t you see the great

potential you hold?
