Poem: If you want to play, then go buy yourself a Barbie doll.
My disease is not for entertainment and amusement. Why do you think I have put up these walls? Do not begin to worry; I will break them down, again.
Right when I begin to raise them up I shall tear them down; it will never end. I will build them taller, docs will shrink me smaller. They do not now and will not ever understand. Thinking out of the box?
Who said the world is a box we think out of?
I think in, out and around about all things.
When my thoughts come at me pushing, my mind comes to them shoving. When others scream with rage I respond only with darling.
I don''t know how to be just anybody
But could it be that I''m some of everybody?
Nobody knows how to be me
And I am not just an anybody.
I am not fortunate enough to be free.
Sure, some call me Doll face.
But if you want to play you better buy yourself a doll.
Most people like the plastic one named Barbie....
