COTTON CANDY

• Artist: Kiy Momo Hope
• Description: I don't like birthdays. I was born right before Christmas and my b-day is always forgotten in the Christmas rush by my friends, so I don't like them, naturally. One year my friends tried to throw me a party but I just...didn't want them to. This was the product of those feelings.

I don’t want any presents.
I don’t want any cake.
I don’t wanna celebrate!

I don’t want any cheers.
I don’t want any singing.
I don’t want a party!

I don’t wana wear a dress.
I don’t wanna dance.
Just gather ’round and
say it ONCE—
that’ll suffice.

I just want to BREATHE.
I don’t want people
Up in my face.
(I just wanna scream:
let me be,
let me be!)

I don’t wanna go-to-town with make-up.
I don’t want my hair spun up like carnival treats.
I don’t wanna be a princess,
or be treated royal at all—

I just want it to be like any other (normal) day.
