The first dress I remember
was a yellow pinafore
I felt so pretty...
A series of dresses followed
ill fitting and awkward,
I tried to hide my skinned knees
my dirty hands...
and the smile I didn't really feel.
Today, the dresses no longer feel awkward
but they've grown in length
to keep things hidden,
things you found so easy to plunder
in shorter dresses...
and I still feel contempt
for the color yellow.
