You Think You Are by Dave Bernasibo

You Think You Are Beautiful No, you’re not because you are Ugly Unattractive Unappealing A pain in the eye And don’t believe them when they say that you’re Gorgeous Cute Alluring Captivating Because you’re not, you are Stupid Unlikable Worthless Don’t listen when they tell you that you’re The loveliest being on earth Because you’re not. You are The ugliest person on the surface of the earth Don’t even think that you’re Loved by everyone No, because you are Hated Disrespected Treated as trash So stop thinking that you’re Brighter than diamonds No you aren’t, because you are Ugly.

(Now, re-read the poem. This time start from bottom to top. Read the title first, of course.) Photo credit:  smartcc365
