Your name isn’t real and I’m sure I’m the only one who can see that
If it was, people would be able to see pride when you identified yourself
Instead they see a combination of letters behind a wicked lie

Your name isn’t real and I’m sure I’m the only one who can feel that
If it was, when those men touched your name tag, it wouldn’t be to touch your *******
If it was me, I’d press on your heart so hard, as if I could force that fake name into your chest

Your name isn’t real
because if it was it wouldn’t be so rehearsed
while the rest your of your words sound pained and hurt

Your name isn’t real
that name is cherry flavoured ice cream
when you taste of *** and candy

You’re not real
nobody I’ve met has smelled like
Nature and Chanel No. 5
at the same time
No woman I’ve met has
wore a smile
when she wants to die
but you exhale cigarettes
through your mouth
letting death go
yet smelling so alive
There’s no such thing as
a girls tears who have
the scent of innocence
when she’s ******* that many guys

I cant go to sleep tonight, just shut your eyes and burn the path
Whether it be into me or right through me
Close your eyes so tight, tight enough to see mere images of the girl you love
We know she’s not me and with your ways
Negative overpowering, I wouldn’t want to be
To be hostage to your words and everything mean
No, if you loved her you wouldn’t be mean
Maybe eventually
She’d need to pray to God, Allah, Buddha, Zeus
Until one of you was through

Your breath on my neck turns into a tornado within seconds, blowing me away
Drying my lungs of oxygen and hydration
Of the ability to say ..anything that makes sense
But all I can sense is the change of your touch from desire and lust to hate and loathing
I may have always knew and even if I didn’t, there's no denying it now
with my shaking limbs and chattering teeth by my radiator turned up to 90 degrees
Im sorry, and it may be hard to believe so take deep breaths
I breathe it into your chest, I breathe in your toxins and I bleed out black ink to try to keep my sanity, resulting in me overthinking
No, I just bleed ink to bleed ink
There’s a possibility I might like pain
So once again I’m putting myself at fault for your hand
Because this is america, you're the man
I’d beg to differ because a man is a human and your sickly any species that’ll except you but not the synonym to what I should be
I’ve lost my sanity, but human nonetheless
I’m a being, just crazy...

She didn’t need a lot of milk in her cereal, just enough to make it damp. Come to think of it, she was like that with mostly everything. Only needed the bare minimum to survive or to even be satisfied. This may have been why I loved her, or maybe the fact that she catwalked in the middle of a ghetto. Or maybe it was because she smoked cigarettes in the winter on her porch in a sundress.

She lit her cancer sticks with the candles that she lit up with her eyes when she was lit up, bouncing up and down on that strangers thighs. So she smiled. When you smile you’re happy and with her it appeared so otherwise her dark eyes wouldn’t have that ****** glow.

Now have you ever thought maybe we women are all actresses and this thing we call life is a performance. Just because she showed some skin didn’t mean she’d decrease her value, as a star it takes lifetimes over lifetimes to dim. So she sat on Venus and talked to the goddess, not a gas planet but she spun on the rings. Living on the edge, almost falling off the rims. After a few times around she did get sad and her world was like Alaska in the winter. Cold and Dark for days after days until that season ended.

But this wasn’t sports, so when would this end. Yes, this wasn’t sports because this wasn’t just a game. Well in the end it was kind of like sports with the angry fans and sweating athletes trying to please people who paid for this event. It was a lot like that last part, pleasing fat angry lonely beer drinking patriotic men. Taking clothing articles and undergarments one at a time off her skin she would try her best to play the game, please the audience and still win.

But what did it mean to win. To get a lump sum of cash like this was a boxing match? It kinda is, to try to reason that living the label of a negative stereotype could somehow be good for you? Beating yourself up on things bad for your body before you fought that bear physically, just so you could leave 30 minutes later with a decent state of mind and to be healthy mentally.
Healthy? Now what is that, a good beating heart to be thin, in america we can’t be fat. But we are, fat in our stacks that go to 1 out of the 100 people that live in this country. Fat, yeah we’re fat inhaling McDonalds because it’s all the other 99% of us can afford. It’s illegal to farm on our own because we might provide something healthy, something that’ll keep us alive.

So this cigarette is as natural as it gets, and the horse tranquilizer inside of it takes her to a prairie where she earned her fake name Black Beauty because that horses eyes reminded her of her own, and when she looked deep enough on a sunny day she could actually see the reflection of herself. And as she takes another hit of the Cadmium she got vibes of energy and flashed back like a campfire flashlight to the days when she carefully inspected the batteries to make sure she was putting them in the remote correctly.

How is it that her careful eye has boiled itself down to making sure a middle aged mans ***** goes inside of her correctly, bandaged with a ****** like her brain will need to be bandaged with gauze because she decided those cigarettes weren’t keeping her sane enough. These men aren’t reliable so she’ll die in the hospital bed she can’t even call her own for she forgot her name. She’s struggling to pay forth for the 1 million dollar X-ray so Mr. 1% can hopefully try that electrifying fish someday. In her last hours she’ll regret every man she let lay a hand on the small of her back, every man she ****** off like a summer snack, every man who labeled her worth on the minutes out of the hour she was there and by the ****** favor.

My lesson here is to never sell yourself like she did, ****** or no ******, a baby and 3 hours of labor is just 18 years of reminding you that 1 hour with you was worth 225 of their dollars, 9 months of your year, and a new label to a single mothered child who would seep infinite tears due to the lack of knowledge of why mother loathes you and why mommy’s eyes are as dark as the words she doesn’t speak to you. And hopefully this child will grow up relieving it’s blues though rhythmetic clues to his or her life, just as I am telling the story of a girl I met and learned for two days who just happened to be a *******.
