Wasteland 2011 (Director's Cut)

Summary

EDITED AND POLISHED. A little project I made for my final year as an undergrad. I took the idea from T.S. Elliot's "Wasteland." It's a mix of Durarara, Hetalia, and D. Gray-Man.

Silver Ice

Wasteland 2011

I: Sliver Ice

She dances around her caged pole

night after night.

Hungry eyes focus on her as

Ice trails her body.

She entices them within the glitter and

brightly colored lights.

Their new Madonna is born.

However, the randy fire around her can't wake her.

Her soul is dead on the inside.

The vice-filled 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 need.

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.

She'll expose you.

Sing to me!

Nothing to say.

He reaches out to grab her, but

She isn't moved by his affections or

Attempts to awaken the humanity within her.

The pole dance is a tease

For those who can't get upstairs.

There this soulless goddess

is auctioned off to be

A one-night wife for the highest bidder.

Her opinion doesn't matter.

She just takes it without a single

Thought of her own desires.

To her, love is 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

As they please for the night.

She is their toy for that purpose alone.

The only rule:

One cannot leave marks on the body

for future husbands.

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.

Older gentlemen do not want this.

They want their toy and will do

Anything to keep her in her cage.

They have even 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.

They don't even see their own beauty.

Both women closed off from love.

Love is like a sin to them that they

Cannot comprehend alone.

Such soulless beauty is

As dangerous as a child with a gun.

They have no idea what damage

It would 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 each of us refuses to

Let us give up until love

Wakes them up again.

But, how can even hope

To achieve this when they

Won't even try to fix themselves?

cat_dancing: Well, I got thru chapter 6 and just couldn't go on. I know that writers think they can't write a good story without using cursing and that God awful "f" word, but it's so un-needed. I know there's not a lot in what I did read, but I couldn't concentrate on the story for wondering where one would pop...
