Cheerleader
Pretty, popular
Jumping, laughing, smiling
Parties, skirts, dark, invisible
Crying, hiding, wanting
Different, lonely
Outcast


The author's comments:
This article speaks for those teenagers who aren't in the lime-light and who have ever been left out. People don't always see what their classmate, or own friend is thinking or feeling. This is what inspired me to write this poem.

this poem is in a form that first describes one type of person and then reverses itself to the opposite of that person....

Excuse me? I"m a cheerleader and you BETTER not be saying that about me! I'm pretty, I'm awesome, and I never cry! I'm not dark! What? I'm not hiding! I'm not an outcast! Actually, it is also quite impossible for a person to be invisible! You are so confused! You have got it all wrong! Join a cheer squad and then we'll see if you say the same thing!
