NaPoWriMo #6

Why does your purse
have the letter “C”
all over it?
What does it signify to you?
And your lacquered nails
blunted, so you’re
not really dangerous,
what is their true cost?
And the high heel hobbles
you willingly wear
that restrict
everything you do,
why do you wear them?
And how many
bottles and tubes and powders
do you use
each morning
to hide your real self?
How much time
how much focus
how much energy
how much money do you take
away from
what really matters to you?
And what do you think
society is trying
to distract you from?
