Common White Girl

In the minds of others...

Common White Girl

 

In the United States,

The overall consensus

Believes

That a common white female

Is someone that

Goes to Starbucks regularly,

In Uggs and leggings very autumn,

As she talks into her iPhone after

Posting multiple selfies on Instagram

When she is finished with her perfect

Hair and layered makeup

After a long bubble soak in bath & body

scents,

And viewing her favorite movie, Mean Girls.

Then, she goes home to put on

Her black riding boots along with her lacy pink sports

Bra that she purchased at Victoria Secret

While shopping with her chic besties.

 

She blows out her frosted cranberry candles

As she Snap chats about her shopping

Encounters with her other group of

Acquaintances,

The ones with Vera Bradley purses, Nike shorts,

And North Face jackets.

 

Putting on some fake hipster eyeglasses,

She snaps another selfie to post,

This time on Twitter,

Where her last post was about her

Customized black leather jacket

Complete with Harley emblems,

She is obsessed with her new iPad.

 

Life as her,

Is so "I can't even… imagine."

I'm a wise man. I know every women is dangerous and never the same. USA like to make the population same and controlled. It cannot be. The human mind. Only can be controlled if desired. I liked your thoughts and your logic. Thank you Josie for sharing your amazing poetry and thoughts.

Somehow I don't like the image you painted, its so real. I saw disillusionment, sadness, and a loss of being. Nice write though.

[Josie E. Cook M. A.]

I know after I wrote this, I felt the same way...:(
It is reality, though, and it is also sad. I almost didn't post this one because of this. Overheard conversations brought it on and also evil looks.

[andrew mitchell]

you did a poetic story justice so well of our new trend in our society.

[Josie E. Cook M. A.]

Yes, even though it is sad and quite negative in many aspects. True to life now. Thanks again for your review.

So true. People tend to view them that way. I don't know if that is good or bad, true or false. Excellent take, Josie.

[Josie E. Cook M. A.]

Just my thoughts on the subject and how a mind might work in our modern times, and how we are judged by others without even knowing it.

Thanks!

You are welcome.
