Reflections of reflection
See the desire
To face the |k|n|i|f|e|
Of our (d)(r)(e)(a)(m)(s).
No longer living the *sharp* reality,
We can only (!)
dream.
Giving ourselves -p-a-i-n-
To _p_u_r_g_e_ ourselves from -p-a-i-n-.
Trapped in a (silver cycle)
Of contempt.
Yes, it's a *sharp* line
[Between] my mind
And the life that
.....follows
behind.
I used to be *f*r*e*e*.
Now I'm .p.l.a.g.u.e.d.
[By Me.]

this is amazing. and i usually hate dirty pretty. i guess thats because most people dont really use it effectively.
you seem to be quite adept at it, though.
and the ending is kind of still haunting me. even though i finished reading it an entire minute ago.
wow. well done.
