[hometext] => I can't hold it in anymore. Its easy for others to judge what they see. Its not easy for me to hold that image uwaveringly.
[bodytext] => My skin is not made of protein cells
It holds water, but it leaks emotions Its not alabaster, its grey and pleated Somedays it is soft, but usually it takes on the properties of steel I learn these facts at school because I'm a goody-goody My cage isn't filled with friends and lovers It has knives, but the edges are dull And there are guns, but there's no bullets The walls are made of religious commitments The floor is Christian parents But my cage is sound proof, so I still look like a goody-goody The outside of my cage is gaily painted But the inside is covered with brains and sporatic poetry People tell me to stop thinking, they want me to relax But I can't, I know too much now I can still study though, and I get 88 on my report card After all, I'm a goody goody [comments] => 4 [counter] => 189 [topic] => 6 [informant] => Uncooked [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => AngryPoetry )
