magnolia manuscripts theme poem by Amanda Downs

The Swamp
Amanda Downs

A place where dreams are smothered
and hope is discouraged
A place where calamity and misfortune is celebrated
Mediocrity is accepted and hardships are expected
A swamp of depression
where accomplishments are boring
and you are congratulated by a, "You think you all that now!"
where you can get a dirty look from others
who are threatened by your beauty
only because they are unaware of their own.
