A fantasy life May 16, 2015

 


No one is immune.

You keep on keeping on for a long as you can until you can’t, and then give up, going through the motions other tell you to go though like those half naked mannequins in department store windows where someone manipulates the arms and legs, and positions the head to be the most appealing to those looking in from the sidewalk.

None of it is real or authentic as she seems to believe, locked into a fantasy beyond which she thinks she sells to the public, a kind of kids game when she dresses up to be someone new each time, putting on adult clothing in an effort to feel grown up, when none of us really are.
