plastic tiaras

Jun 03, 2004 20:00

living in a world full of
plaster people
with fake glassy eyes
and clumps of glitter
sprinkled on their silver tiaras
it's hard to keep sight of
what's real and what's not.
we're expected to do this
and say that
and don't cry
and cut here
but what if we just...stopped?
it's all a matter of
melting yourself down,
reconstruction of the century
and let yourself
be formed from clay
(because sometimes
we need to change shape)
and once you realize
that the silver crown
upon your precious head
is nothing more
than cheap painted plastic
you can snap it
in millions of pieces.
because maybe that's
what it's all about
breaking through
the cocoon of conformity
and shattering
the plastic tiaras
of society.
so break yours today.
