Conformity

1>I have forgotten the reason I'm here
2>So all that I have now is hope and fear

3>They all call me Stephanie but what is a name?
4>We're fake and elected, we all are the same

5>We strive for uniqueness through beauty and calling
6>Beware of conformists, theres somebody following

7>The taste of perfection so far from our grasp
8>We'll run staight at it, miss it then gasp

9>Perfection was never perfection, but flaw
10>We're all supposed to want it, not get it, then fall

11>The dream never ends but theres nothing to gain
12>We're all in a circle doing the same

~1st off, great poem. i like it alot.
though some lines feel forced to fit in with the one before it and some dont seem relevant to the poem, i think its truth, structure and wording are great, and although i dislike parts of this poem, i really really like it. lines: 3,4,5,9 and 12 are my fave's - they make the poem strong, and alive, and believable.

good job
