carnivalesque (Free verse) by sarah
porcelain promises from under a mask
painted like a dali painting
suggestively
looking right at me
with perfectly lined eyes
i almost cry
i know you lie
mouthe agape
courted by hidden abhorrence
slicked up songs celebrated by sirens
manipulating me
my inner voice calls out
rescue your self
screw the top shelf
daily drinks of rum
(your idea of fun)
mask off =
macabre
misconceived truths
spew your infectious misery at the next booth
i'm singin the move on song
that carnival of being treated like crap
it's so stale
like popcorn forlorn on a floor after big nights of fun
you came undone
you are a loaded gun
wear your pretty mask for someone else
i'm too fast

This is, otherwise, pimple - not a bad one though.
