ALTER ME Alter me Change my ways Make me more polished Make me more staid Manipulate me Bend me to your dream Make me less original Make me obscene Make me in your image Make me a success Make me wealthy Bereft Of happiness Make me more functional A well oiled machine Make me accountable Make me mean Make me uninteresting A social bore Make me limited Make me Poor Make me anchored Make me insecure Make me committed Make me want more Make me perfect Erase my flaws Make me silent Make me bored By Siobhan O’Sullivan
