Superficial World

Folder: 
Feelings

I’m surrounded by superficial people.

Judging my looks, my hair, my speech.

Always looking, but never seeing.

I’m surrounded by superficial people.

Dumb. Hating to read and cheating on work.

Easily stumped by an easy word or question.

I’m surrounded by superficial people.

With too much makeup and too little clothes.

Saying they own boys, or bragging about girlfriends.

I’m surrounded by superficial people.

With friends beyond count.

But only because of movie knowledge or clothes.

What has this world come to?

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Of all my poems, this is one of my favs. It was inspired by someones poem I read one day. I bet there are others who feel like this.
