Corey
Contest Winner
He’s got a face of a gorilla,
With his big, bulging eyes—
That seem to follow your every movement,
And the long, slender nose—
That isn’t proportional,
He’s got a mouth that is stuck in a stupid half-smile,
His ears drawn back, flat—
Against the side of his wretched face,
The intensely loud ‘click’ of his tongue—
But he tries to stop it,
He’s got sideburns which are way too long,
And the hair pulled back—
Waxed with gel,
Eyes so dull and boring—
That stare blankly into the mirror,
‘Can this really be me?’ he asks.
More creative
writing.
