Acne

Acne
--------
I,ve got a four letter plague
Acne.....
Red angry pustules
Ruin my life
No school today
No way Jose
As I study my pizza face in the bathroom mirror
And try with shaky hands to shave around the zits
I have the weapons of war
Biactol, antibiotics and cream
And my bloody doctor,s bloody advice
I have the cleanest spots in fourth year
But she will never love me
There are smoother faces to fall for
Oh shit!!!...Is that a blackhead?
Or a whitehead...a bloody shitehead
Could it be a cyst?
a hospital case?
No school today
I,m staying put
But the temptation is too great
I squeeze it and....relief
Instant handsomeness
Quickly I wipe the mirror and hurry to school
And she,ll be there
Two desks in front:
