Sugar and spice and everything nice - if you Can't say nice things then don't say anything at All. Don't make anyone uncomfortable - Its true That if you play it just right, someone might act Like they love you; ask them for proof in forms Material; continue asking jewel-encrusted oaths, Adorn this shell, your porcelain encasing warmth Giving love life, humanity's disparaged backbone; But slip on those stilettos, your body will be an Object of political discourse, you're worth flawless Hair and pairs of hoops or tights or boots - a man Can work till sunset but you'll always be in progress So people who live in glass bodies should know not To walk alone through alleys lined with slingshots.
