I Just Want to Scream

Black and white,
everything must be.
Talk like this,
look like that.
No acceptance
for difference. 
Be a size zero.
Have hair that flows. 
Mold yourself!
No personality,
no character. 
Or, be surrounded by laughter.
Media controls us.
Movies show us what love is.
Magazines tell us to starve. 
Family tells us to be ourselves. 
But celebrities show us how to conform.
How long will it take before we scream:
NO MORE!
