[boom. BANG. c r a s h.]

Dressing up for Halloween
fractured lipstick
light the lithium smoke on fire
with those razor burn eyes

Injected with glamour
a Hollywood gutter
inhale, breathe in && out
let the fairy dust intoxicate your senses

Inject Technicolor cancer
beautiful but deadly
(oh doll, that’s what you do to me) 

You were never one of the beautiful ones
but you had me hooked
like a cheap whore on plastic heroin

Neverland was never as it seemed
a haze of pretty corpses
bruised with nicotine lips
&& innocence

Fantasies for the dead
(please baby, breathe life into me)

A contest entry

    I freaking love this one, I don't know why you removed it from the contest. It's spectacualr and definitely would have put you into the second round, it may have even one this round.
    Well still it's a fantastic poem and congrats on the HM with this one.

      The only reason I removed it from the contest is because I am not sure whether I would be able to come up with writes for the next 2 rounds. I have been having a very long bout with writers block.
      I will reenter if you like and will try my very best to come up with something for the next rounds.

    Some great classic dp here... the colours hurt my eyes, I felt like I was on LSD ... But that's a good effect
    I love 'haze of pretty corpses' it sounds so eerie!

    I love it.

    You did a really good job.

    Describing how the character felt.

    "Inject Technicolor cancer
    beautiful but deadly
    (oh doll, that’s what you do to me)"

    It has to be my favorite part!

    I dun think, there's anything I don't like.

    Your poetry is so random.

    But...
    Meaningful.

    I envy it.


    Acacia.
