the year begin wrap itsekf up in a pretty box with a nice bow. packaging is everything.
we can hide our tragedies behind pretty paper and bright lights and well meaning words.
the mask is universally appliable...
we can hide the blood on boots from those defenseless people we have stepped on by simply standing behind a podium.
the hands we use strangle the life from our brothers and sisters is concealed by holding a tv remote.
the deception in our words is masked by the music of justin bieber, the fucked up life of lindsay lohan, and a black eyed peas beat.
we hide another year in a box.... never to be opened.
