Who's Afraid of Sasha Grey

WHO’S AFRAID OF SASHA GREY?
Cupcake muffin candy cat food
Nurses needles and strong arms
Uniformed Candy Stripers
With their orthopedic charms
A submissive is the boss of you
The slaves are put in charge
One look from her will stop your heart
As she suffers for her art
Who’s afraid of Sasha Grey?
Don’t make it too complex to follow
Plausibility is key
If the plot’s too hard to swallow
We’re unconvinced by what we see
For most of us the choices stick
Some of us escape
We live inside the thick of it
They just walk away
Who’s afraid of Sasha Grey?

IRL

IRL
It took months to meet IRL
You’re sitting in the dark, beautiful
Not even looking for me, is that cynical?
Flash a smile and look away, is that typical?
Am I just a page from your social media?
Is this just a stage of social Schizophrenia?
A textrovert without her thumbs becomes less a comedienne
Have expectations come undone from social tedium?
There will be no you and me, I can tell
No messages to read speak of spell
No room for hope Heartbreak Hotel
Delete from history my URL
Am I just a page from your social media?
Is this just a stage of social Schizophrenia?
A textrovert without her thumbs becomes less a comedienne
Have expectations come undone from social tedium?

The Girl With Blue Hair

THE GIRL WITH BLUE HAIR
That’s my reoccurring dream
It’s an endless nightmare
A gothic Myspace beauty queen
I’ve got jpegs somewhere
I regret I’m at a loss
All this effort wasted
She’s preserved in semigloss
I’m annihilated
You got my number But you never text it
It’s almost summer
Time we just forget it
Some obsession with the past
I can’t quite remember
Messages behind the glass
But who is the sender?
My anxiety’s unclear
About the girl with blue hair
You’re my reoccurring dream
It’s an endless nightmare
You got my number But you never text it
It’s almost September
Time we just forget it
