I wrote this in college, and won a competition with it later through a small underground lit magazine. Basically, almost EVERYONE I knew at the time was into writing these horribly emo poems about how their life sucked, and how their mother didn't love them, and blah blah blah blah blibbidy blah. So I went in another direciton. Instead of an epic of self-hatred, I wrote about something that was truly worthless.



"Worthless"

It is frustrating
How useless they are,
For they cannot grab and
They cannot hold
And they’re not really
Good for anything but
Being my worthless little arms
That aren’t good for anything.
And it’s embarrassing that I can’t wipe
The triceratops from my mouth.
