Paper Town

Charcoal grey expressions,

And a stark white slate.

Paper people pondering,

How to template fate.

 

Their lives are all drawn out,

In a linear direction.

Nothing ever changes,

When stencils draw perfection.

 

Calculate the angles,

And paste a paper house.

Everything falls so easy,

Living in a Paper Town.
