Barbie
Barbie
Is that all you dreamed to be
Just a pretty face for everyone to see
But truthfully
There’s nothing to be gained from such a figure
Your presence is boldly noticed
But is anyone listening when you speak
Perhaps not, They’re too mesmerized by your thighs
Their eyes are so far below the shoulders
That the eyes on your face are almost,
Too impossible to reach
It’s another
Sisyphean mission that has yet to be attacked
You speak so loudly
And yet you’re not heard
Perhaps by now,
You would’ve gotten the word
Your Medusa like subduction has been your own demise
One look at you and we all turn to stone
Stagnant
And not free to roam
Our bodies have seemed to surpass our minds
BARBIE!!!
Don’t you see what you’re doing to me
Slowly dying with patience
Maybe tonight she will break free of the plastic
No one can withstand that dimension of life for long
You remain in Barbie World,
In search of Ken
Hoping that your childhood innocence,
Would somehow reappear,
In the form of,
Him
Barbie
It’s okay
Just cry
For we all have been misguided by the lies
Together we can wash away the darkness of the past
Along the way we will lead your followers,
Into the light of the new dimension
Only then will we learn the hard lesson of,
Progression
BARBIE!!!
Are you listening to me
Please don’t let my words fall on,
Deaf, Plastic ears
By then I would have already shed too many tears
So now I’ll wait
Let’s see how long it will take for you to move on,
I wonder,
How many days,
Will you remain wrapped,
In Ken’s arms
