Unconscious MAG
Wake up.
Contour your blemishes and
Go to school.
Hide your curls in your hood
Until your friends recognize you.
Wake up.
Smile into surgery
Strangers will drill into your head
For 7 hours
And will send you out with a Band-Aid
And a pat on the back
Wake up!
Detonate your ears
To mock the whispers.
Flood all cities around you
So you can’t be whispered to.
WAKE UP!
Photoshop your body
To fit a size two.
Auto-Tune your voice
To deafen others.
please wake up …
Stretch yourself out three feet
past your original height.
Cut your own heart into fragments
And distribute until fully consumed.
Congratulations,
You have successfully lived a life of
Unconsciousness.
