OK YOU BIG BLACK BOX

OK You Big Black Box

Who’s The Fairest Of Them All?

I can see You soaking Me in

I’m sitting here, shoulder high

in Your Glossy Black Reflection

You’ve got My Attention

but what are You going to do with Me?

I commanded You on Monday Night

to tell Me what to do

with This World — & what happened?

I got no response!  You were speechless!

You failed Me

I ridicule You in exchange

You are just a big black shiny box

& I’m not Your Princess

or Stepmother —

I’m nothing to You

I hate Your guts

You Great Big Fucking Black Box

I Hate You
