Fake

This is what happens when you ride the bus too much. Written in 2008

You are

A beautiful rose

A decade past bloom

 

White synthetic fur jacket

Platinum blonde hair

With grey roots

 

The glossy cover of

A fashion magazine

With frayed edges

 

The sickly sweet smell

Of cigarettes

And perfume

 

Fake

Is all you seem to know

How to create

[The Darkest Muse]

Very nicely done. How very well it can be stapled to the faces of humans these days.

i like the description of this poem, very much.
and i like the poem, very much..
i couldn't criticise this, even if i tried.
it's practically perfect,
so i'll just leave it at that.
