The Pastic Life

Summary:
https://www.youtube.com/@ThomasWCase Here is a link to my YouTube channel, where you can find me reading my poetry. My books are on Amazon, and Sleep Always Calls is the latest.

There was this woman who
I used to know.
She wore cardigans and
glasses, and she had
a smile that would
chill a penguin.

She loved to build things.
One gray winter night,
she built a house of
delusions.
There were no mirrors,
and everything was
plastic.

The couch,
the bed
the sex,
the laughter,
the love…
all plastic and fake.
The flowers,
the fish,
the children,
Time didn’t exist to her,
and everything was
hazy and cruel.
I begged her to
put in mirrors,
she said they were too
expensive.

The house didn’t
cost much to
build, but it sure
wasn’t
stormproof.
