Wasteland 2011

Wasteland 2011

I: Sliver Ice

She dances around her caged pole;

Hungry eyes on her as

Ice trails her body.

The fire around her can't wake her.

Her soul is dead on the inside.

New Madonna is born.

The underbelly of Ikebukuro

Is her glittered cage

She calls home.

Everything is provided for her.

Her main master pays her education

And everything he feels that a doll

Could ever want.

Yet, this will never be enough for her.

She doesn't feel;

Eyes as dead as winter.

Out of the dolls in the underbelly,

She is the most desired out of them all.

Sing to me!Nothing to say.

She'll expose you.

He reaches out to grab her, but

She doesn't move at all.

The pole dance is only a tease

To those who can't get into get upstairs.

That space is spared for men with money.

This soulless goddess is then auction out to be

A one-night wife for the highest bidder.

Her option doesn't matter.

She just takes it without a single

Thought of her own desires.

To her, love is just a game to

Sell for one night.

She will love them like a fly

And never love them again.

Countless men use and abuse her

All they want for the night.

She is their toy for that purpose alone.

The only rule is that they can't leave

Any marks on her body

Afterwards.

Yet, one young man has fallen for her and

Wants to set her free from this paradise prison

She is trapped inside.

He desires to show her what true love

And emotions are.

Many older gentlemen do not want this.

They want their toy all to themselves and will do

Anything to keep her in her cage.

They even have called in a black-coated

Information broker to help see to that.

In a way,

She is just like my Hyacinth Girl.

Both of them take the abuse and harm

Without any regard to themselves

At all.

They don't even see their own beauty.

Both women closed off love from themselves.

Love is like a sin to them that they

Cannot comprehend alone.

Such soulless beauty is as dangerous

Like a child with a gun.

They have no idea what damage

It could do to the men that desire

Around them.Yet, the young man and I

Refuse to give up until

They are freed from their

Soulless icy cages.

Despite how vain the efforts look,

Something in us both refuses to

Let us give up until love

Wakes them up again.

But, how can even hope

To achieve this when they

Can't even fix themselves?
