#wethecoolkids






       We are
so cool.
       so cool we're hot.
              don't touch, can't touch us
this exhibit is for your viewing pleasures only
       #perfection
watch us
       follow us, love us
              or don't.  it's all the same
we still interpret your indifferent gaze as either judging or admiration
       drop it
like it's hot
       so hot it's cool
              #wedancelikebeyonce
our exalted self image doesn't allow for self doubt
       #fierce
hear us laughing?
       we're happy
              can't stop, we won't stop
an endless party fueled by starbucks and social media validation

  2. Mmmkay I love this. I got so excited when you told me you wrote something that I instantly looked up your blog to read this. I miss you and your writing so so much!

    I usually DETEST dem hashtags, but I gotta say I loved every one of them.
    Especially #wedancelikebeyonce
