Scarred by Youth

Scarred by Youth teenage girls gathered at fences and park benches smoking don’t smile show no emotion they are all bloated as anorexic blood vessels burst continuous narcissism bubbles in their hair and on their skin they preen themselves and still they are hideous venomous stick insects smudged and... distant oh, they know what’s best for everyone but kiss the boots of ‘cool guys’ strangely and they’ll do anything anything to be loved it is… fraudulant and one by one they open their eyes futility smiles at them... laughs and they grow up eventually for all that possessed them was vanity obsolete beneath the broken bottle.

I'm into poetry that flows through me, more as an emotional art-form than a traditional construction, but I do appreciate most of it.
