Glamorous Poem by Tatianna Rei Moonshadow

1.
You ask me to explain us;
As if the concept of us is brand new.
When in reality we’ve been around forever;
Selling to kings, peasants, sinners, saints, and men just like you.
We walk around like Gods,
We are untouchable and everyone knows,
We wear our skirts and suits like armor,
And live behind a shield of acid and blow.
We use diamond studded syringes;
The pain is half the thrill.
Danger is our way of life,
The rush comes from the pills.
We never get too close to anyone,
None of us can ever be burned or touched.
The candy we sell will enslave you.
Then we’ll keep you under an iron thumb.
2.
You want to know how we’re identified;
Well take a good look at me and how I dress.
Our eyes are always glassy,
And our conversations are always laced in threats.
Our cars are all expensive,
Every outfit we wear must match,
And every purse or jacket has a secret pocket;
Where we hide our personal stash.
3.
Now you ask about our relationships,
But all we really have is casual sex.
Because kisses from these lips are a noose;
If you risk it you’ll hang yourself from them by your own neck.
Of course we do care crazily for one thing,
We’re all devoted and married to our drugs.
Each of us lives for our own poison,
They’re the only things we honestly love.
