milk and gritty

Summary:

A parody of Rupi Kaur’s poems, with Gritty as the subject

Notes:

I actually came up with this because I was writing another fic featuring Gritty but it got deleted. Hope you enjoy!

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Chapter 1

Chapter Text

orange fur

large eyes

it was

beautiful

terrible

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

his father

a bully

but he

 

strong

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

falling

falling with no end in sight

falling

 

onto the ice

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

so new

so fragile

one month in this

fragile world

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

attacking

but attacking who

the santas

 

or himself

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

mockery

imitating another

flattery

aren’t they one and the same

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

a picture

recreated again and again

in varying forms

goodnight internet

he says

goodnight indeed

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

his eyes

windows into the soul

his eyes are empty

is his soul

 

too

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

when one dares attack

he does not take it

he attack back

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

sleep with one eye open tonight

 

bird



Chapter 2

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

he is loved

by many

he is hated

by many

so

 

what is the truth

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

never revealing himself

never truly taking off the mask

will we ever find out

who he truly is

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

breaking down barriers

will not be contained

in this box

throwing fits

throwing objects

will not be contained

attacking those you placed him here

who watched him suffer

he finally breaks the walls down

will not be contained

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



those who attack

never prevail

counterattacks

will never be defeated

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



he rises

after so many

said mean things

never break down

Notes:

In case you don’t know what the poems were referencing-
Just the fact that a lot of people don’t like Gritty and a lot of people do
When he went on that talk show and took off his mask, revealing the guy underneath in elaborate Gritty makeup
When they threw him in the penalty box
The little kid attacking him
Just the fact that he’s still going strong after all the backlash

Notes:

In case the poems were too vague, here’s what they’re referencing-
His appearance and him in general
The official team describes him as having a father who is a bully
Him falling on the ice
When they did a thing about baby Gritty being one month old in October
Attacking those Santas recently
The Kim K champagne picture parody
Another Kim K champagne picture parody
Idk something about his eyes
The little kid attacking him
His tweet reply to the Penguins
