Welcome

Pretty to the Masses

Flawless
That’s how she makes it in the morning
Way before you see her
Long before you think of yawning
Sometimes she thinks about it
The effort is so daunting
Sparks a new thought
Wisdom begins its dawning
But by midday the heat has started clawing
And she takes shade under an awning
The audience is ahhhing
Disappointed
But she’s already made it to a bigger
Stage
Filled with OOOS and AAAS and
She forgets the disappointing
Phase
Her hard work paid off
So her face the cracks no longer show in
Making sure
She’s pretty to the masses
Heartless
That’s how the rumours started
Look at the way she flaunts it
Many feeling taunted
But the audience tells her
“It’s not your fault.
They could have had it if they wanted.”
She trusts them
Because when her morale fell
They were the ones who caught it
Supplanted
Family
Friends
Giving her everything a girl could ever want in
A world where all
Is measured in admiration
For being flawless
Hard work got her here
Dislike
Is why they call her mean and callous
“They’re just jealous.”
Maybe
For a moment
She starts feeling a little empty
Realising she needed constant filling
Because her cracks had started leaking
To know this
She didn’t have to dig too deep
Some say shallow even
Hollow meaning
That she needed to be filled with proper sealing
By now she’s running out of choices
Looking through the ceiling
Feeling she has to go back to the stage
Continue on with being
Pretty to the masses
