Doll Parts

[Taz X.T.R.]

A shattered image of your former self, far away from where you once was.
Layers of paint on your face like dark mud; to hide the inner self.
Your dignity is worn like shards of clothes sewn together.
The purity no longer here, the heart left vacant.
All that is left is an empty shell, filled with doll parts.
In a sad effort to mend a broken soul.



I wrote this a long time ago for a stripper named blue. When I bounced at Goldfingers in Florida. She seemed to have given up on life and had sold her dignity for a dollar. 🙁

Taz..This is one of the greatest poems Ive heard in awhile...You may write poems less that others..But they are so powerful as well as them too....It is beautiful babes!!!:hearton

You know what..Its sad to know and hear what goes on in the news and in every day life...Why so people feel that there is a need to give their body for money?? Most of them are because they have no other place to go and to support themselves and even there child who has no father who cares..I just wished the world worked diffrently..It would be a happier, safer place....wow..this is what your poem made me think..lol..Once again..I loved it..Keep writing..😉

Thank you Crystal & Enigma,

Yeah, I should write more than I do. I just need to be in that zone to write. I can't write just for the sake of writing. I don't want it to sound like blah,blah,blah, yada, yada, yada.


It's sad to meet a stripper who feels her body is the only way to feed her kids. I have met a few in those scenarios and it was hard to see the look on their faces. The sadness in their eyes. When they would run to the back crying or take another hit of coke to get then through the night. It's a life I would never recommend.

Im still young, and knowing with what goes on around me in life...I will never be able to do that to myself..I wouldnt be able to live that kind of life..And I know if I had a chance to change the world...That is one of the things I would like to change..Its not something I would like to see or hear about...

Just keep a good head on your shoulders and you'll be okay sweetie.
