Echoes Between Cardboard

Chatter boxes

like the back of a cereal box

appealing to all under the age of

literacy

depth to fill your empty bowl

and the complexity of Styrofoam.

Pass the milk, it will taste better.

Beautiful.

Perfectly simple with the explanation

that life is so damn complex

unfair

ugly.

Put some eyeliner on

it will make you look

more like her who got him who got her to

look like this.

Pitiful.

Comrades in idealism

ideas are self absorbed

and this lipstick is filled with lead.
