Nice bit of work. A good example of creating an image of what your thinking and how your character work, you rebel :-D
...I don't think there's much hope for that dresser though

Love the image you used. I think I had a dresser just like it. :) Love the poem. I think every teenager goes through a rebellious stage. "I danced a bit and kicked some shit." I definitely did that. Lol

Hello I like your free verse reminds me when I was a teenager and being rebellious
telling me what to do
and saying, 'I'm wrong'
come on don't rush
or dare even push
me around.
I have found
my way is the only way
I will behave everyday ...
I want to have fun.

Gert

I danced a bit
And kicked some shit

And called a number
I knew before...

I had a good chuckle at this one! Thank you for this great piece! The picture caught my interest to begin with nicely. Great scheme made for a pleasant read. Thank you!

I really enjoyed reading this poem. I think we all have worn out furniture. LOL Once again, you give us a poem that reflects reality in our lives. Thank you for sharing.

Ahhh, never stop living. Whether you are a child or an adult, never stop living.
Let go of the limitations you, or anyone else, has placed on you.
Pull the stuff out of the drawers and kick around.

Take care,
Rhonda

Grown ups try to live by society's norms but not the young and rebellious; specially, in today's milieu of the 'Me generation'= thanks for sharing.

There are some fresh, imaginative, personal elements to this free verse poem, so I am giving it a six. I loved the minimalist repetitions, they seemed to emblemize the frustrations of living, the feeling that your hopes are coming to nothing. And there's that determination to go somewhere, become something, with all the youthful energy roiling underneath. I liked the images, I danced a bit. interesting piece estory

I loved this, what a great attitude! So often when people are they think it's time to slow down,take it easier. To hell with that I say. I don't feel much different than when I was 23.Thanks for sharing.
