Disaster Face Poem by Casey Renee Kiser / snail viXen

Disaster Face



Ah, the beautiful people

Confuse your mirror
Hype up the whore
Make your body rich
until your soul is poor

Ah, the beautiful people

Tighten your face
just a little bit more
Watch your soul
walk right out the door

Ah, the beautiful people

Vanity trumps all
is what our children see
Slay any hope for reality
all in the name of beauty

WHOSE BEAUTY IS THIS? ? ?

Yes, I find it difficult
to smile in this superficial circus,
Just not for the same reason they do
Find true beauty in your purpose
