would i even recognise myself
without all these accessories,
layers upon layers of mere tissue paper
that crumples under the softest touch
am i a bad person for dressing up, and wearing rings, and caring what others think of me
is the real reason i do it all just for attention
am i an attention seeker??

Accessories don't have names
Doll cannot stand alone
Colors and decorations may vary
I always felt that my existence was an extension of my mother’s. The only reason she wanted me was to stay still and be pretty next to her. I was an accessory that didn’t have a voice of their own. She just wanted to play house.
And when I started to talk and developed my own personality, she was triggered. She did not sign up for that.

What is love when it wears
the shoes of hate
sweater of judgment
accessories of gossip
pants of vengeance
and the coat of conditions?
Real love is naked

Dreams are like poison ******
Dangerous dangling *****
Poking holes
In the status quo
Cutting queer angles
As strange jewelry dangles
From the tip of your lip
Silver studs
Tinted smoke from buds
Radical idealism
New types of feeling
Parallel the painful application
Of physical mutilation
The cocoon
That blooms with a boom
Scratching the exterior
The reach the wonderful interior
So when strangers stare
Looking at your hair
Or the rings here and there
When they Gawk
At the hot inked spot
Smile inside
Cause they only get to
Share the ride
For a little while

— The End —
