Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.

The women
walk through
the halls,
gold locks
swinging back
and forth.The girl
watches them
in envy.The girl
looks down
at her
skin in
disgust, the
taunts of
the women
spurring her
self-hatred.Why not
creamy skin?She scratches
her cheeks,
opting for
the ruby
red that
beads from
dark skin.Red is
better than
colorless black.
