PLASTICS

Plastic people

 with plastic faces,

smile plastic smiles

while in plastic places

to make everything seem alright.

–

I wear wax lips

and bright-eyed contacts.

Fake eyelashes

to bat my eyes like that

to make everything seem alright.

–

I wear a rainbow wig

with my fake glued-on nails.

I put on a happy mask

when sadness comes in hail

to make everything seem alright.

–

Take off all that glitter.

I just have to face it.

Remove the shell around me,

Show my true self depite the shit.

Who cares if everythings alright?
