nameless .08

Inescapeable plan

the dark path waits

to be treaded on

so uncarefully again

in the distance

i see it

my chance for another life

as far away from this one

as andromena from milky way

twitch too often

ignore the smoke

the haze that fogs

all doubt and

preteen instances of

insecurity

some never grow

the bonsai trees

society's

so redwood trees

can plentifully populate

the smaller forest

shining white

that ill smile you wore

fashioned by

lasers

smooth faces

fashioned by

scalpels

the poor slobs

beg on the streets

to be

as beautiful as you

when you're thirteen

and you don't eat

she better be

as beautiful as you

inescapable plan

for all of us to be

so fucking

perfectly imperfect

perfect bodies

imperfect minds

nevermind the monster

nevermind the vomit

just be yourself

as long as its not

fat and ugly

i wont do it

i will not walk the path

that claimed so many casualties

of image's destruction

but the other life

so far away

the path is laid before my feet

and that's where they'll stay

so I can perish

at the cost of image

as my predecessors did

a not so lofty bargain

for the pain

that begins

with your first step

on the dark path
