"Jealous" by Charles Ray
CW: this poem contains imagined violence
He's tall, I'm not.
He's good looking, I'm not.
He's funny, I'm not.
He has friends, I don't.
He's wealthy, I'm not.
He gets girls, I don't.
He can dress, I can't.
He has a car, I don't.
He gets good grades, I don't.
He's going to an amazing college, I'm not.
He lives in a big house, I don't.
He gets invited to parties, I don't.
He has a job, I don't.
He's considerate, I'm not.
He's an artist, I'm not.
He smells good, I don't.
He has good taste in music, I don't.
He's perfect, I'm not.
He's alive, I'm alive.
He got stabbed, I didn't.
He's innocent, I'm not.
He's dead. I'm alive.
