Plastic Imperception by Shonda Chrissonberrynaive?, no
unaware?, maybe
obtuse?, yes
I am ok as long as I am
in my imperceptible
plastic bubble.
I live in a world where~
babies have babies
people live in boxes
priests sleep with boys
husbands murder wives
drugs ravage the streets
clinics perform infanticide
war is over religion
schools aren't safe
Dirty politicians, corrupt cops, &
sleazy lawyers make & break
all the rules.
And I wonder...
naive?, no
unaware?, maybe
obtuse?, yes
I am ok as long as I am
in my imperceptible
plastic bubble. 10/10/2004 Posted on 10/11/2004 Copyright © 2025 Shonda Chrissonberry
