The Plastic Mask
You may hurl abuse,
You may slap her with all your strength,
You can scream until your lungs give out,
She will not react.
She is above you.
Devoid of emotion,
Blessed with clarity,
She can get inside,
She will break your defences.
She gathers her weapons,
Waits until she must strike.
She will take you down.
You are a puppet,
She is your master.
You can defeat her in only one way,
Play her at her own game.
One day, if you're special,
She will tell you her story,
She shall feel emotion,
She will love you.
Break her!
Take her down!
It's been done before,
It will be done again.
You may slap her with all your strength,
