Your Beauty Hides Inside Your Beast

You hurl insults

Like a monkey hurls feces

Like a hippo in a battle

Like a stampede of angry cattle

You hurl insults so fast

In the presence of your temper

You,your shadow cast

You’re bitter about everything

You there, the girl with the short past

No one is safe

From your bitter distemper

You’re the heroin

In your own self-made dramas

Oh please,please,please,child

Save the drama from everyone

Keep it far,far from your Mama

So STOP!!

Stop acting like such a beast

A beast of prey

You’re the beauty

In your own self-created beast

Only you have the answers inside

To appease your own beast

Cease and desist

You’re on the wrong road

Cease and desist

Go find your prince to kiss

He is there,on that lowly toad

Get up off that low road

You’ve traveled on it for so long

Life really isn’t such a terrible load

C’mon, come up higher

Humble yourself and dwell in your humble abode

You’re the beauty inside your own beast

Let her come out to play

Let her be herself every once in a while

Stop being fake;put off that costume today

BE YOURSELF!

Have your own style

Empower yourself

The time to change is NOW

Please,no further delay

BE YOUR OWN HERO…

365 Snap Shots of Life: Day 92

I love photographing kids because they are fresh and unpretentious. I took this shot of my youngest while we walked around Rodeo Drive. I was people watching and I oticed so many people trying to be cool.  I asked my daughter to pose in front of one of the most recognised addresses in the world and she wasn’t even phased; to her it was just another chance to look cute and make a memory. To others, Rodeo Drive is a status symbol. To me, Rodeo Drive is just another place to take cool photos.  Happy April Fool’s Day 😀
