Here. A poem you will want to read?

Question

Popularity

Pretty people packed tight in a circle;

Outsiders with longing looking in.

Pry hard as you want; you're wasting your time-

Understand it's a game you can't win.

Let it go; they tend to thrive off of us

And all the attention they receive.

Remember- we are here for each other.

I will follow if you try to leave.

Though I make it on top, I'll pay it all back;

Yeah, I don't think I'll ever belong.

acrostic.

Answer 9

There are a couple of flaws too trivial for even a nitpicker as myself to mention. I love the lissome lovely little lines of  alliteration. What impresses me most is the maturity evidenced in the expression of the feelings produced by a situation so typical of adolescence.

Answer 10

i like it, i guess it's about a person always trying to fit in and then realizes that they just have to be themselves.

Answer 11

Swoosh - this is great.  I hope our Poetry enclave isn't like that.  I know I was a briefly puzzled by the injokes, and personal references...but, then I was quickly welcomed in.

Of course, you belong.  You went on my contact list really early on....I did chuck a lot of people off for a while as I became overloaded and wasn't getting to read newcomers, but I think most are back on again.

Acrostics bring out the best in you.  

I like the line 'they tend to thrive off of us' - exactly, where would the exalted be if it wasn't for the acolytes?
