Human Disease Poem by Khloe Chace

Human Disease



Never look back,
It's always going to chase you.
If you turn you may fall,
And they'll eat you alive.

Always on the run.
Don't let your heart keep you warm.
They'll find you by the smoke,
from the fire of your soul.
They'll put you out and make you freeze with the cold.

If you wanna listen to anyone,
Take it from me.
This world is taking over...

It's a human disease.
Starts in your head, takes over your feet.
Directs you to places you don't want to go.
Anything less that flawless results in defects of beauty.
No cure for the human disease.

Racing day to day.
This must be the only way.
To escape with a brain in my head.
I must fight to keep me alive.

It's a human disease.
Starts in your head, takes over your feet.
Directs you to places you don't want to go.
Anything less that flawless results in defects of beauty.
No cure for the human disease.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This is kind of based off the book Uglies. I just got tired that people think they aren't worth anything if they aren't perfect. Hint: no one is perfect besides Jesus, so stop trying.
