UGLY.A Poem by Cassidy MaskWe’re ugly And we take advantage.
Your eyes are In your head And they watch us With disdain. We laugh as we cry (To put off your pity) Because your hatred Is all that keeps us Warm at night. You don’t understand, Furrowed brow Reveals all, And we roll our eyes.
We laugh At your frustration But, you catch us out, Stop us dead.
Eyebrow raised You ask: ‘Sarcasm or honesty?’
Our mirth dies In our wretched throats. And we turn away
