I Put On My Fabric Armour
March 2, 2015
Polyester armour covers me,
hiding my imperfections.
A denim shield protects me
from the societal infractions.
A cotton helmet hides me
from the world of painted faces.
Wooly chest plates force me
to quickly pick up my paces.
Leather shoes try to help me
run from my troubles.
Satin covers embrace me
as my heart turns to rubbles.
Fabric armour covers me
from the world I call my home.
Shielding me from society
and forcing me to roam.
