What is Style?
This is a call to all those women in blood red lipstick.
 I flipped through a glossy world of you yesterday.
 I finally realized I don’t look up to you.
 Those fake smiles that stare back at me as I gaze in envy.
 Admiring your boney thin legs and those clothes draped over you,
 Like clean, crisp sheets blowing in the wind.
 I bet you kill inside.
 Yearning for life and clawing your way out of expensive bottles of Pernod -Ricard Perrier- Jouet .
 Just to experience something real.
 When you close your eyes do you see flashes of light?
 Does the darkness take pictures of you even when your eyeliner isn’t perfect?
 I hope someday you’ll indulge in a chocolate milkshake.
 Their d*** good, much better than carrots and water.
 I’m tired of wanting your life.
 I am not going to fade into the wall like all the others.
 I don’t want to be the star of the runway.
 I realized today that I want to be a writer,
 Not a hanger.
