#7 Barbie Doll

The central theme of the poem is describe societies take on other people. In the poem barbie doll, this girl is very naive on society. She thinks everything is fine and she is pretty like a barbie until one of the classmates in school tell her "you have a big nose and fat legs." Society identifies people as what they see. They do not care what is really on the inside; rather, base on looks. It did not matter how smart she was, or that she was healthy. Everyone just noticed her big nose and fat legs. However, when she died, society finally got to make her look the way they wanted her too. Just like a barbie doll, they painted her lips and dressed her in something nice. The overall theme is that society can bring people down.
