"polyanna" poems - Hello Poetry

I've drank a thousand beers I've smoked a million cigarrettes I've ate at least a hundred Twix bars I've watched Breakfast at Tiffany's hours on end I've flirted with every male waiter that brings me unfulfilling dish after unfulfilling dish I've bought weekly **** dark outfits and I've spent my life savings on beautiful MAC make-up and a new Legacy and pumps I think you'd like I've gotten my hair colored every color I can think of I've tried being an apathetic punk, an upbeat cowgirl, a wide-eyed polyanna, a harsh madonna, a fuck-you-feline, an emotionally charged marilyn, and a classy Diane I've memorized witty jokes, and roasts, and rivetting last lines I've modeled and sang and became an athlete I've played hard to get, I've played easy and teasy And I've twirled my hair and crossed my legs and learned to walk while swaying my hips I've ran miles and kilometers and meters and I've lifted weights and done zumba and yoga and hiked and biked and **** There's no comfort and no getting to you.

White serpents of clarity flow through my mind The three tailed monkeys have sung their toasts, I never knew just who I´d find Along the beaches of Small Talk coasts.
