This poem is about my insecurities about feeling very uncool and undesirable. It explores how poverty, rejection sensitivity and fear can be incredibly isolating. It comments our materialistic society, our desire to be accepted and the importance of being yourself. Its a long poem and I would recommend it when you feel isolated, alienated and unsure of yourself.
I want us to share our stories and realities. I want to know more about marginalised people so if any of my work is alienating or discriminatory please let me know and the poem will be taken up a version with an explanation so we can all learn together. Love from the lover x
