In a state of disrepair...

Black dress in mourning embrace
Red eyes in a masscara face
White skin in mannequin grace
Silver lips to mentally rape
Gold nails in murder scrape

Don't you know Miss Perfect Girl
that friction burns hurt like hell?

Don't you know Miss Perfect Sell
your fiction can burn me as well?

Don't you know Miss Perfect Hell
the moment that I ashed and fell?

Tell me the frequency
to tune you to empathy
or are you just empty

The slip and slide of fate
the mirror of your face
to represent the hate
in me.

Why do anything at all
if you just will me to fall?

"The world won't end in darkness, it'll end in family fun
With Coca Cola clouds behind a Big Mac sun."

One God by The Beautiful South

LT, what an image.  Nothing to follow,
and everything to lose.

To be one's self?

Ideal.  BUT, only if Ideal is to imagine
that one can fail, and rise again.

Wonderful images to gasp at;
wonderful escape to find.
