Today I decided to make a dress. I'd seen others do it. Figured I'd give it a try. So I laced Predictability on neatly And hemmed the Defensiveness in tight. Stitched up the Strength, the Sarcasm and The Empty Stare in a nice, perfect line With pearly white Laughs to match. Then I ironed it with puffs of Indifference, And hung it up to admire. It was nice. Decent. Normal. Okay.
I put my dress on and walked out into the world. I smiled at all the right places and frowned to the silent beat. And then when I got home I took it off and cried.
