One of the worst traps
Is finding yourself
Despising someone
Really good.
There they are
Wearing a miniskirt
Talking dirty
But washing
The filthy
Feeding the hungry
Defending
The poor
Befriending the dead
& all you can
Say in your
Defense
Is
Their bleached hair
& studded
Nostril
Hardly goes
With so much
Leg.
