Not So Pretty

Not So Pretty

Disenchanted

Pretty girl
With a nice face
Behave my doll
Show it off
But stay in place
your intact grace
Don't lose face.

Go ahead
Dream big
But always take permission
Fill out the form
Prerequisites
Stand tall
Upon the terrestrial ball
Wobbling rolling balancing
Juggling onerous duties
Do it all...

Smile pretty girl
World your tempting
Oyster
Life your palate
Gulp in the tangy salacious
Succulence
Salt it with tears
Inside accumulate.

Choking on choice
Finding your voice
Told to succumb so
Bow and play dumb.

The world a soccer field
Of Blood thirsty games
Men guard jealously
The Goalposts of gain...

You're a pretty girl
Honey you're rolling
Towards the good times
If you're willing to play ball
Baffling
Scuffling
what
Messy rapture
Brief momentous insane capture
Sheer Coveted prize
But you're the price
And the momentum of your
Life
is determined by the throw
Of their dice.

Sometimes you're the ball
Kicked and tossed about
For others to score...
The Goal
Ends it all
And you're just used rubber
Shredded
To your core.
