A Life Without Charms MAG
March 5, 2015
a knife without a Blade,
a fruit without Seeds,
a garden without Flowers,
a jam without Sugar,
a lady without Heels,
a pencil without Lead,
a pen without Ink,
a star without Shine,
a sword without a Hilt,
a king without Wealth,
a crown without Jewels,
Teen Ink without Writers –
such is a life without Charms.

It is just very interesting. It explains life in a simple way. It isn't degrading at all Don't read into things.

@MysticMusic the line you thought was funny, I found deeply offensive. The poem as a whole reminds me of something I wrote in second grade and doesn't strike me as something that deserves to be published. I don't understand this poem at all, but I think that this might be due to my own ignorance -- I have no idea what "Charms" are. Could someone explain to me what you like about it?

I look at people's work like you and I feel that there are still good young writers in the world............

It's a really good satire commenting on human behaviour. It's true that one should always be happy and optimistic despite the gravest of situations s/he has to confront. This is something that stays with one forever — his optimism. Really good work. Keep it up!
