I Don't Care Poem by Kim Barney

I was born in a bank - - my mother went there and made a deposit

I Don't Care

Rating: 4.9


My head is bald,
but I don't care.
I'm not so tall,
but I don't care.

I'm overworked
and underpaid.
It's been ten years
since I got

sick, and my boss says
'That don't count a lick! '

I'm disapproved,
misunderstood,
have all that's bad
and nothing good.

I am so ugly
that I find
that parents shove
their kids behind
their backs to keep
me from shocking
them to sleep.

And then those parents
stand and stare
but I don't care.

I wish we could have a better word where all will be equal no matter what and have justice as the king.
