"It's cute!"
Thanks so much, I made it myself.
"Just one thing."
One thing, like everything else?
"It makes me uncomfortable."
That makes no sense at all.
"Just seeing you like this."
Are you worried I'll fall?
"No, it's in the dress."
I know, I understand.
"So I don't have to say it?"
No, it's common and bland.
"Then will you take this jacket?"
But I don't feel chilly.
"Just to cover up, dear."
Oh, don't be so silly.
"This isn't a joke!"
Do you have a condition?
"No, I'm uncomfortable!"
But what in addition?
"There's nothing more!"
Ah, I beg to differ.
"You said you understand!"
Go look in the mirror.
"Why should I do that?"
Darling, you're not me.
"I'm not following."
This is what I wear, see?
"I know, I just ask you to cover."
This is what I want to wear.
"I don't want you in it!"
And do you think I care!
"You should!"
You have no illness.
"That doesn't matter!"
There's no excuse for this shrillness.
"My excuse is your tits!"
What about them? Are they scary?
"No, they're pouring out!"
Yes, my dress is quite airy.
"So cover them!"
I'll tell you this one time:
"Don't lecture me!"
That I am finally in my prime.
"I can tell."
That's what I mean!
"To be a whore?"
Yes, and to cause a scene!
"What is your point?"
I'm happy in this.
"That's not an excuse!"
And now you're dismiss'd.
based off of this imagined conversation:
"dude you look great! did u make that yourself?"
"yea, of course! thanks so much!"
"it just makes me a little uncomfortable, haha."
"how so?"
"well, i can very clearly see your, uh..."
"my, uh, what?"
"your boobs.."
"oh, do you have a phobia of tits? should i go cover up?"
"no, it's just that they're like... there!"
"yes that's the point. i'm kind of a harlet?"
"ok but i think you're too young to be dressing like that."
"does seeing a 16 year old's boobs make you uncomfortable?"
"yes! i-"
"does it turn you on? do you feel guilty because i'm so young? because that really sounds like a you problem. i shouldn't cover up to protect your precious conscious."

ПоэзияI am not happy. I don't know if I've ever been, or if I ever will be. Plenty of shit has happened to me, but plenty of shit has happened to everyone so I shouldn't feel special. I just wish I didn't have a normal person's life. I wish I didn't have...
