    I hope this was sarcastic because this poem is filled with underlying anger.

    It feels like you're describing a person with a huge mid-life crisis that once had the dream of being a dancer but failed at it. Nicely written enough with the emotions nearly touchable.

    5/5

    This is amazing...beyond amazing in my opinion Andrea...
    Really I love this...it is refreshingly sarcastic but does hold alot of sadness and anger and I ponder on the real meaning behind this...

    Saying that it was really well written and had me nodding along to alot of what was said here...

    Great piece

    You forgot to mention that you're brilliant and awesome because you are Andrea!
    Loved this poem and even though your mood has some sort of heaviness in this poem, it made me smile that you manage to be sarcastic about yourself at times, even when everything seems to be frustrating.

    Haha I really love the bluntness and sarcasm. And I agree, there was a sad/angry tone beneath all the sarcasm.
    This really shows your sense of humour; there comes a time when we simply don't care anymore (in a good way, of course).
    Great write (:

    This made me laugh through the whole thing, Andrea. I absolutely could not stop :) Heck, I even feel this way and I am still in my teens...what does that say about me? Probably nothing good...

    "I'm a silly creature with a lot of pressure
    on my plate at dinnertime,
    who can't for the life of me
    find a bra that fits these flap jacks
    that I have grown over time.."

    ^ I have to admit that this is probably my favorite stanza because it made me laugh the most. I have never heard them called "flap jacks" before. Very interesting...

    "I've got a ghost in my pocket
    and a butt full of calories,
    years of dancing bare foot
    and a bank account with a
    five dollar savings."

    ^ This is also one of my favorites. You went through this poem with the perfect tone of voice, or I imagined that you used the perfect tone of voice. Just a matter of fact tone that indicates that you don't give a dang what anyone cares, which is what the whole poem is about.

    Excellent

    This one was my favorite stanza, I'm glad this piece is under funny, because I can sense the sarcasm in this poem. I agree, sometimes it's better to find the humour to the things that we might care.

    I love this, I laughed so much! I love the sarcastic tone... there is a point in life where you seriously don't give a damn and just do you and don't care what anybody thinks about it! 5/5

    This piece certainly made me laugh but the thing I found most funny about it is that a lot of people would be able to relate to it because it's true. Oh I loved it!!!

    Andrea, this new look site genrated this poem as a recommended poem to read. I must say, this is the best thing this new look site has offered me so far.

    This poem could only be written be a 40 something lady poet who has lived long enough to know that beauty is more than skin deep, but not long enough to still want to cling a little to youth.

    Age it is a funny thing, we want to race to our first date, kiss, drink, then, before we know it, we are clinging for dear life to the memories of when we knew no better and thought that the world was sugar coated.

    I had to laugh at your mention of 'flap jacks', perhaps, you could crumble them and pour ice-cream over them???

    I personally think, we age like good wine and taste all the better for being older and covered in dust! lol

    Take care. x
