Vinegar Dressed Up As a Beaujolais
People are aspired to be desired, so they erase.
People aspire to their 20's, so they erase.
People are deluded for immortality, embalming themself as they still draw breath.
People erase their facial expressions.
Frozen expression.internal neglection.
Shiny gift wrap with a big void inside.
People are changing their skin.
Like an advertisement for their character, boost for the charisma.
Like an eternal testimony for failures and wrong choices.
People are running from time.
Running to an illusion at another life.
Life of eternal youth, endless beauty, to be wanted, needed, desired.
Your waxy face belongs to a droid, your heart made of plastic.
You are easy to shape as per society's wishes.
You send your poker face to play for life with an empty hand.
Ease with this self-passion, you are a vinegar dressed up as a Beaujolais.
