Esme's Scribblings

[Esme nha Maire]

Hi folks!

I used to be a classic depressive-creative for much of my life, and wrote poetry sporadically from my teens. When life started getting happier for me, my creativity dried up, until earlier this year, something wornderful happened - my creativity came back, yet I was enjoying life! I write a range of stuff, although my personal favourites tend to be either comedy or romantic.

Here's my most recent completed creation, actually a parody (of 'If I only were a Goth' by Thou Shalt Not) of a parody (of 'If I only had a brain' from the film of The Wizard of Oz).

The babydyke's lament by E.M.

Femmer, or more boyish?
Or androgynoish?
I'm not sure what I like.
Shall I still wear makeup,
Or give my image a shakeup
Now that I'm a babydyke?

Do I wanna take my chances
Making first advances
At all the girls I like?
Or remain a wallflower
And to hell with Grrrl power
Now that I'm a babydyke?

Yes, I
Can't decide
Quite where I fit in with all... this
Should I work out and get boyishly fit?
Or go glam and make the most of my tits?

Oh, I wish I had the patter
To woo them like DeLaria,
That would be so nice!
But my tongue tends to stumble
Every time I wanna rumble
'Cause I'm such a babydyke!

In my handbag I have made room
For some dental dams too,
Like any good Girl Guide.
But reality's depressing,
The chance of me undressing
That girl I like are tiny!
(Oh god, now I'm sounding whiny!)
I'll go watch Ally Hills on YouTube
'Cause I dunno what to say or do,
I'm just such a babydyke!
