Dear society

Sun, 11/30/2014 - 22:03 -- Lunide

Dear society,

  I have heard about your rules,

I have heard about your absurd expectations,

I am tired of them!

A beautiful woman is supposed or must have long lustrous hair,

and blond please, with some luscious mouth,

Sanguine blue eyes, do not forget

a prominent chest too, thin waist,

A zesty, curvy bottom and long legs.

What is that? A restaurant order!

I am sorry, I thought a woman’s feature was just a part of herself,

and not herself.

What do you want society?

Do you even know what you want?

Or maybe you do know what you want,

but we are the fool who are being controlled.

Buy that product and your life will be better,

Dress that way and your will feel awesome! Yay!

Please spare us your want of a profit.

Or instead let us spare ourselves,

Yes! Spare ourselves by acknowledging that

Society is just a wall built from bricks of dust

And is nothing less than the “Land of the fee and home of the fake”
