^{Through the Tar in a Cigarette

Grind those teeth,
Spin those lies,
Eventually people will see what is beneath,
And then your world divides.

Dye that hair a different colour,
Cover those eyes in green, black,
It doesn't matter how much you shudder,
The world can see the loyalty you lack.

Type away five poems a day,
Photograph yourself from angles, untrue,
One day the tears you release will be unveiled,
But these things won't compute---

Denial, what a beautiful firestarter.
