Dan Arcus
They’re beautiful, but cannot see
A butterfly cannot see int’s own wings, it does not care for beauty
Yet, we see, and work hard to be percieved as pure beauty
Toxicity is what we’ve become, in a world so full of Rapacity.
A deer tramples through the brush, carful not to awake the wolf in the woods
Fear in it’s eyes, shows all that it should
Predator and Prey, strong and puny
Men and Women, unequal are We?
Shame felt towards the smallest things, yet isn’t bothering others to be seen
Failure as small as a C, makes you looked down upon by Society
Gifted are we, then we’re pushed
Burnt out when grown, earning disappointed looks.
Standards raised far too high
Follow the trends and you’ll be fine
Accepted in our little cliques
Just to fit into Society.
Skinny bodies, you’re favored more
Good personality? No award
Pressure into beauty standards
What happened to being Natural?
