Poem Artwork

 
 **original art by me, via and art channel - Vogue covergirl transformed, literally buried alive in paint ... you can just barely see her original necklace she is in the midst of quite a transformation ... aren't.we.all?
 
Free Falling, Buried Alive
 
Having fallen,
no holds barred, 
where is there, 
if you drop me?
 
Letting loose,
given way free,
what lies below,
if you let go?
 
Once dropped,
this place to next,
where do I begin
the journey home?
 
Lying beneath,
floor is now roof,
what tools have I,
to dig for relief?
 
 

... they say when you die, your hair and nails continue to grow for a time, as the dead tissue continues its outcropping from your once live body ... i wonder then, is this how we recognize those dead, yet still upright and seemingly functioning? you may glance over and say, "who's the girl with the hair??!?!?! ... and i wonder where she gets her nails done" ... hell on earth, would be the name of her beauty shop, in the mall where the dead girls are walking.

Simple solution:

Always carry your American Express Card, don't leave home without it. There will be no mistaken of identities.

wow this is really good and hit some great points, I was a tomboy still don't wear make-up, and I do my own hair because of my job I don't get my nails done unless special happening but society put to much on those things....in my city a girl just killed her babies by leaving them in the car while she got her hair done four hours can you believe that?!? they were just babies....I don't know I really don't know
