Misery loves

Misery loves

When I choose
 I stand !
I walk to the stage ,
Emasculating
In the audience
Are some
To rise  their hand

Their propose
Is malice
Speaking
Delivering
Their own way , they hate themselves
Wrapped up in gold
A label wrote  , with love
Hidden is the hate
They don’t want you to see

Jealousy .
Envy .
Hidden , are the words !
Why you , and not me
As we all say ?
Misery loves
Company

Wrapped up in gold

Stand up poetry is the most courageous thing a person can do.

I applaude your ballsiness friend, you are not emasculated, you are empowered. Remember though that Neopoet is very unusual in the love and support given. Mostly poets are petty bitches to each other. Don't misinterpret, it is the words jealousy and envy that stopped the 5th star here. They are probably not that. They are probably just using bitchiness in place of critical feedback. Jealousy and envy make you sound petty. Even the petty ones applaude grand poetry. Cheers, Jess
