A Stupid Do Not Be

A Poem

do not be a Stupid or take your skin for granted do not bleach your hair or straighten out your feelings, they are not decorations to swing from a tree. - repeat after me, “you are not an ornament.”

behavior bad you will see but still, behave as if a queen fill your socks with pride set your goals high, make your bed and lie sleep so you can grow. - repeat after me, “you are not an ornament.”

like the pattern of eager girls ready silly girls ripe for the pick, girls scared girls that drink, and fight other girls to compete for a boy, another girls. - repeat after me, “you are not an ornament.”

keen girls throw time away thinking they have later and they do but later is on lease so keep yourself for longer. do not be a stupid girl or make the same mistake over. - repeat after me, “you are not an ornament.”
