Dolly won't you smile?
Wave and laugh and play awhile.
Kiss my cheeks and dance around.
Dolly won't you be the clown?
With her cheeks white and powdered,
And her lips red and smothered,
With her eyes blue and glazed.
You ask "Dolly why won't you play?"
I try to grimance and to frown,
To turn my smile upside down.
To blink my eyes and purse my lips.
But to bad! They're forever in a kiss.
My face is plastic,
I cannot move,
I always smile,
There is no reprove.
I'm ever the same,
Everyday,
I'm a doll,
I cannot play!
I breath no air,
I feel no heat.
Why is it I hate and seeth?
I'm a little dolly,
Plastic and strung.
I cannot move,
My days are done.

This was not random! It was an amazing play on words and filled to the brim with hauning imagery. You ended it perfectly, and it's even better that you're a kid (me too) because seeing that this is a dark write, it just shows that us 'little kiddies' can come up with some morbid stuff!
Pat yourself on the back my fellow dark childe.

interesting
i really liked this poem, although you changed rhyme schemes in the middle of it, and i thought the line 'why is it i hate and seeth' was a little rough rythmically.... it was a great poem though
