DISTORTION
I don’t wear my glasses when it’s snowing out.
It all looks so much prettier fuzzy,
I’d rather see beauty without
Heavy editing and scuzzy
Frames of thick distortion.
I never wear sunglasses in the daytime.
It’s like taking a picture with broken settings,
Making fruit look bruised in their prime
And I always lose them like popped buttons
Lost in the black hole of purses and sewing boxes.
Every day I put in plastic discs
Because I am vain.
Despite all the risks
They make everything look normal and plain
And I go about pretending I am perfect.
