Life Upon Your Stage

Put on your sparkly costume,

And start you jaded play.

But I knew your famous show,

BEFORE the opening day!



Underneath gallons of make-up,

And your faulty little lies,

Lives the person you ONCE WERE,

Before the massive disguise.



You try to run it past me,

And I don’t know why you think,

By showing me a DEFINATE red,

That I will call it pink!



I guess it all depends,

On your perceptions of the shade,

The color hue and lighting,

Plus the ATTITUDE displayed.



Now, if you’ll please excuse me,

For my straight, forward form.

I’ll smile and let you continue,

The act you proudly perform.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

My friend suddenly thinks that she is "better than thou" and is acting not like herself all for some stupid people. She is, quite frankly, getting on my nerves.
