After*Words: a snippet of my creative psychology

Family Acts
Stop acting like that
You’re beginning to upset me
You and everyone else in this family
You’re supposed to support me
But you’d rather abort me
You don’t help me out
Who knows what that’s about?
See y’all hear me
But don’t listen to a word I say
Sorry all my feelings can’t be extremely happy
That’s because I’d rather be real
I want the world to know how I feel
Stop acting like that
You’re beginning to upset me
You and everybody else in this family
Poke fun at me
I think it’s an enjoyable thing
To see my family contributing all this hatred towards me
But don’t worry
I’ll continue to breathe
If I don’t allow others
Why should I let you get to me?
I’m sorry if I don’t appear to be happy
Stop acting like that
You’re beginning to upset me
You and everybody else in this family
