GROUP:
She's here,
she's here.
Don't come near,
hide your fear.
The green girl is here!
ELPHABA:
Another day
in paradise.
They step away
like little flies.
Can't they see
this is me.
This is me.
GROUP:
Don't look at her,
she'll turn you into stone.
Don't touch her,
leave her alone!
Don't speak to her,
she'll bewitch you.
Don't anger her,
she'll injure you!
ELPHABA:
For just once I'd like
a normal day.
GROUP:
She's a devil,
she's a demon.
ELPHABA:
For once I would just
want to get...
GROUP:
Stay clear,
get...
ELPHABA/GROUP:
AWAY!
GROUP:
Her skin so green
like poison drops.
Most disgusting ever seen,
born between crops!
ELPHABA:
Have to control myself,
can't let it happen again.
Have to concentrate myself,
before I go insane.
GROUP:
Mock the wicked child
of demon heritage.
Don't be beguiled
by her mental damage!
ELPHABA:
It's nearing...
GROUP:
Wickedness inside,
ELPHABA:
Can't hold it...
GROUP:
Don't touch her, don't speak to her...
ELPHABA:
Why don't you just all...
GROUP:
Don't go near...
ELPHABA+GROUP:
GET AWAY!
Author notes
A song/poem based on the scene where Elphaba is the attention of everyone again and where she is being teased. She is unable to control her random magic powers and the song ends just as she releases a power spell that knocks everyone down in its path.

The poem was supposed to be inspired by one of the songs, not a scene. I really like this poem and the story line in it. I will let you keep it in the contest anyways...but it will not win of the top 3 places, and honorable mention is still possible. I'm sorry.
Great write, thanks for entering and good luck.
