082808

I stare into the mirror peering
face into a phantom leering
who the fuck is this woman?

Sunken eyes, a face the shell-
the hallowed exoskeleton tell
me what the hell are you looking at?

You drone around here vacant eyed
darkened with detachment tried
the sting of denied emotion;

I hate you with your glass blown stare
the mask that's always, always there
cheekbones to hide expression.

Behind your down-turned smile eyes
Your oxygen comprised of lies
I hate you with your character.

Your freckles analytical
your mouth awake and always full
of lines rehearsed and spoken

A broken dozen roles you play
your daily life a matinée
I hate you with your DNA.
I hate you with your logic.
