Lilies in full bloom
White curls
Like Mapplethorpe
At once filthy and beautiful
White curls
The hair of old women
At once filthy and beautiful
Yellowed by poison air
The hair of old women
Wound on tiny rods
Yellowed by poison air
Overprocessed with chemicals
Wound on tiny rods
Tension pulls at scalps
Overproccessed with chemicals
Hair turns to mush
Tension pulls at scalps
Chemicals burn skin
Hair turns to mush
Sink traps eat, digest
Chemicals burn skin
like Mapplethorpe
Sink traps eat, digest
lilies in full bloom
