The Seamstress’ Daughter
by suraj sharma
Copyright © SurajSharma, 2006
She’s unrepentant and doesn’t deny
There’s more to her than meets the eye
Never an admirer of automation of chores
Feels right at home, among dykes and whores

She’s pretty averse to the idea of clothes
Children of all kinds she loathes
Not quite the rebel for a virgin cause
Counting down the days to her menopause

Spits out feminist anthems full of spite
From behind the anonymity of her website
Mortally dislikes all human contact
Considers love to be something abstract

With her blood she would like to paint
And she spits on you if you call her quaint
Doesn’t like to drink, and she don’t do drugs
Watches television lying naked on the rugs

Neo-pagan rituals she performs with a chalice
Even though her heart be ripe with malice
Dreams of the day when she'd live with witches
As continually in her basement her mother stitches
Change Background Colour

Notes
Yeah yeah i know the routine, i don't mean no bad, blah blah blah,  you think what? i dont fucking care. Well i do actually, but only if you have something intelligent to say and i do care about what my friends (people who know me here on LF) think about it. Since these are the people who know that it is not my intention to diss anyone.

Cool! Is it supposed to be funny, because I found it amusing. It reminds me of the poem I wrote of what I'm supposed to be like when I'm old. Anyway, nice work! :)

wow! no it wasn't supposed to be funny actually... it's supposed to be anything but humourous but yeah, i mean i guess i could see why you found it funny (why do want to be like the seamstress's daughter when you grow up? (she's so evil!).

It's not that I want to be like the seamstress's daughter, it's just that your poem is kinda similar to the one I wrote about being old, and mine is supposed to be funny. I guess just because my poem is similar I read yours the same way I'd read mine. Sorry about that.

why are you being sorry? it was pretty much my bad that i didn't get the meaning of your comment, and your interpretation of my poem is completely justified, by your ways. it's okay if you found it funny, i kinda do do too :)

Hmmm... I get mental images of the daughter of some 60s era hippy mother, y'know? I like it.
