Doll Maker

by JustKristina   Feb 7, 2009


Don't worry little girl,
With what I have in mind
I'll make you one of them...eh,
Ravishingly, lovely...those beautiful kind!

I'll pick out your shoes,
Your shirts and all your friends.
Don't you worry little girl,
You'll be beautiful when this pain ends.

I will pick out the perfect face,
The one that I would love to see.
Little girl, oh it's going to be beautiful!
And all of it? Created by me!

I'll sculpt your arms and legs,
You'll be the perfect size.
Little girl, just you wait...
Soon you'll be beautiful in my eyes.

From the rags you are today
To the beauty you soon will be.
Little girl, the ugly thing you are...
No one really wants to see.

The hideous, worn down sight you are now,
Will be turned in to something brand new!
You will thank me for this little girl,
For I will make something beautiful out of you.

Transformed into a beauty
When all my work has been completed.
Little girl, trust me, it won't be easy.
But this doll maker isn't easily defeated.

    Wow this is certain a refeshing read. i like the concept of you dolling up a doll. It's something I never thought that i would come across but it's gd as the concept of writting it is pretty unique and throughout the poem, i can sense your passion for this doll that you possess as if it was ur bestfriend whom you always want to make her look beautiful. I really enjoy reading this. keep it up

    Excellent job

    I interpreted as a take on the hype around external beauty... how people expect a girl to have a beautiful perfect figure ... loved the metaphor you have used ...

    "Don't you worry little girl,
    You'll be beautiful when this pain ends."

    ^^ its so heartfekt to see girls going under the knife for that perfect figure ... and its the society thats makes them do so ...

    wonderful write :)

    just as a Doll is lifeless and without emotions... people think we are dolls and could be modified into so called perfect shapes ... without realising how much pain it causes ...

    This was amazing poem...it had a lot of illustrations.

    i think this poem deals with a lot of pain..mainly because the reader is the doll maker, instead of the one being created. i feel like the doll has given up and the dollmaker was her only option out...almost as if it was her last resort.

    Good job =D
