"Blessed are they who see beautiful things in humble places where other people see nothing." ~Camille Pissarro


She wore spare parts like broken jewels
But tried to hide the cracks
The air she breathed tasted like ink
When sunlight came in waves

She was frugal with her dignity
And honored for her rags
While privately, she hoarded
A wealth of false ideas

She hung her portrait with no face
And kept a pair of glass eyes close
In case of the anomaly
That might bring them to use

But reality was poison
And she withered dry from thirst

Her home was named insanity

You know,
She isn't real
