Modern Barbie Society

Barbie is plastic, hollow and full of nothingness 
Jasmine followed the uninspired ways of her toy counterpart
Jasmine is allergic to life's flames while Barbie remains lit 
Life is no more than a full house with no garage 
Barbie is miles ahead of the one they call Jasmine 
Similar mindset, but at least Barbie has a brain 
The stiffness is too unrealistic for the living 
Jasmine, seems like there is jealousy a foot
Toy with me not ; you are playing right?
Barbie steers her wide body Benz through the city 
Jasmine never recieved the memo, so she continues to walk
Who is the realist in a world full of doll babies?
