we are PPM
in the age of the broke
a future of invisible people
this week, a body-part’s for an exhibit
previously, another’s placed in a concrete mix
and we will fit daresay behind
furniture that is never flush to the wall
during the age of the penniless
the eyebrow, a nape, and both achilles to be the norm
sold, the entirety of doors will be locked
because deemed unnecessary by a many shedding face
we will slide

The Empress's New Cloths
I wonder how we'd fare
if we had no more cloths to wear
stripped naked of the images
we see in the mirror
donning hate like a cape
and no more pride to hide behind
plus, jealousy is the new black
Well,
there's one thing that's certain
my soul will still be wearing
a pair mismatched socks
God can take the rest
but I draw the line
at having cold feet in heaven
you can't have my toasty toe sweaters
if we had no more cloths to wear
stripped naked of the images
we see in the mirror
donning hate like a cape
and no more pride to hide behind
plus, jealousy is the new black
Well,
there's one thing that's certain
my soul will still be wearing
a pair mismatched socks
God can take the rest
but I draw the line
at having cold feet in heaven
you can't have my toasty toe sweaters
