Newt vs. Lizard


They are still amiss about you and I. But you are bound to land you live on. Half your size, where has the rest of you gone? Did you see that bird that is flying high? Thefear can now be seen in your evil eye. By making a change did you hope to be like a swan? The birds enjoy the severed look you don And even then it is, your own blood you cry. And yet, the one with less defense, has more Of the freedom to travel in water And land. when I need to run I do not Leave myself behind to be forgotten like your Own tail you have forgotten. I alter Myself while growing up. You, I am not.

You have a unique writing style that I appreciate a great deal. I see this as an abstract poem with the potential to mean anything and everything, depending on the reader. Despite that, I cannot seem to make the connection between this poem and bullying. Will you help me?
