Carrie

They're all gonna laugh at you!
That's what my crazy religious mother said
She was right
Now they are dead
Why didn't they treat me nice?
So what if I was shy?
If they would have been my friends
I wouldn't have had to make them die
I have telekenetic powers
I can move objects with my mind
I went up on the that stage
And what did I find?
A prank
A bucket of pig's blood
They tricked me
That mean girl and John Travolta
So here I am
Buried in this house of rubble with my impaled mother
I just wanted to belong
Oh, why bother!

About this poem:

It would be nice if the story of Carrie were just a fantasy restricted to books and movies, but sadly many kids face the daily trama of mean bullies at school, unfortunately some use guns instead of kinetic powers to exact their revenge. A remake of Carrie is coming out in October with the girl from Kickass and Kickass 2 which was my favorite movie so far this year.

Cool piece Mcrad. Sounds like an interesting movie. I hope it supersedes such high expectations when it is finally released. Have a wonderful week ahead.

On the horror movement I see. Good stuff as always from u. I watched the rage just recently. Was good I seen it before and the classic Carrie was decent. Thanks for the entertainment ...Jesse

darkhorse555, thanks for your comment. John Travolta has come a long way since Carrie. Now he has his own big airplane he parks in front of his house which looks like the White House.

Poetnumber1, thanks for your comment. I hope to see it soon, hopefully next weekend it will be out and I will enjoy it more since I don't have to work the next two Saturdays.

Julieanne49, thanks for your comment. We have not come very far with this topic of bullies. I just finished watching the new Carrie yesterday and found it good, but not as good as the original, though it did stay truer to the novel and had some interesting changes.
