I am the last 12 letters of the alphabet
I am the puzzle piece that will not fit
I am the hand you're dealt when you're in the pit
I am the old and the young self-righteous p***k
I'm the grinning, spitting, fat fitting king
I am the telephone that will not ring
When you're messaging from around the world
And older man who's a pretty girl
I'm the shitty shoes that you couldn't afford
I'm the phone call that sends you on one last tour
I am the check you get from your forgotten father
I am the letter you got from your missing mother
I am the sea that drowned your first born son
I am the thoughts of many, the face of one
I am the man that tore apart your home
With half-off sales on methadone
I am the pole your sister dances
I am the gift of second chances
I am the drug-permitting trances
Of the homeless and the rancid
I am the plague of wasted energy
And the man that brought you synergy
I'm the face that launched a thousand wars
And the faulty hinges on your doors
I am the bottom of the ocean
The furthest reaching star
The core of every notion
That you never carried far
I AM the face you dread
I am the pillow on your bed
I am the comrade you thought you had
Who's leaving you for dead
I am the stanzas in the poem
You had no time to write
I am the battle that you're losing
But who said you had to fight?
I am insincere
And never there
When you need me most
But always there with party flare
For your undeserving toast
But the point of which I want to prove
Is never all that simple
So live in peace and apathy
Until you're old and wrinkled

- Description: You know that poem every kid is forced to write when they're in like.. second grade? Well I was thinking about it, and wanted to write something that would have freaked out my teacher the most. This is what I came up with.
