Hazard Zone

It's a hazard zone by the mirror,
Bombs are falling from her eyes.
Grooves in the glassy slab,
Cement over whispered lies.

Self control is fleeting,
Staring down the beast within.
She still believes feeling beautiful.
Must be a sin.

And little tiny voices,
Slowly brings her down.
Self conscious reflection ever staring.
Looks like she's 'bout to drown.

Clouded self image,
Murky eyed glare.
Can't reveal the gorgeous,
Person that is there.

I wish she could see,
From a stranger's point of view.
Cause she's killing off the girl
She never really knew.

Teen Labels

L abeling at schools has been a major issue in the recent past , As if there isn't enough pressure in society, there seems to be a new label invented every day for a certain style or music. Teens all over the world are now being branded into different categories, and of course this brings a lot of different opinions on the different labels. Its just like racial prejudice some kids don’t like another group of kids because of the way the dress or act, or the music they listen to. The labels are getting out of hand quickly, but this article is an explanation of the different groups and the conflicts between them.

here the 1st label i'll talk about , i will include the rest later.

Punks and Goths

Firstly, we have the “punks” and the “goths,” also known as “the hardcore kids.” These are the kids you see wearing all black every day (or black and red), often having piercings all over their bodies, banging their heads to the music blaring over their headphones. It’s not uncommon to see them in a rock t-shirt from a recent concert, or wearing metal spikes around their wrists and necks. These clothes and accessories are found at stores like Hot Topic. They listen to mostly rock music of all varieties- classic rock, punk, metal, black metal, and so on.

They get looked down upon by most adults based on only appearance, and they’re often blamed for things they didn’t do. Of course, this isn’t always true, but due to prejudice, there are many incorrect ideals as to who was in the wrong. Authorities see these teenagers and think automatically that “these kids are trouble.” But it’s really not always so.

Many people suspect the hardcore kids of doing illegal things and being up to no good whatsoever, and again, this is only true to a point. For example, school shootings are usually plotted and carried out by kids that wear all black and seem to be misunderstood in society, but there are always exceptions to the rule.
