THE FALSE FACE OF THE AMERICAN DREAM IS THE FACT THAT WE LIVE IN A CLASS SOCIETY CREATED BY THE RAMBLINGS OF SOMEONE
tired.

in a land of false faces
we the people demand a standard that is not achievable -
not for our education but for our ****** egos.
perfection is a siv that will not hold water
a constantly crying child
that we cannot ignore
but cannot silence

in a land of false faces and fat stomachs
we carve out our bellies with knives
and turn our backs to the other girls in the school showers
we deem ourselves unlovable
by the vase a bouquet is placed in
by a face our soul is placed in

in a land of false faces
we are all a tragedy number

THE FALSE FACE OF THE AMERICAN DREAM
IS THE FACT THAT OUR
faces
we find
unlovable
