A Better Canvas

I’ve tried to
erase my face
in second grade
to try to get
rid of the
mistake I wore everyday
a hideous skin
obliterated with hasty and harsh expressions
I wanted to
paint a new face
something colorful
and completely out of context
but my teacher threw
my painting away
and now
all I do is
erase
