why am i like cling wrap?
cling wrap. why?
well im sticky and not.
(all at the same time)
i hang on to things too easily.
i protect readily.
but most often
i get too caught up in myself.
myself. why?
(good question)
with nothing to cling to cling-
wrap wraps itself around itself.
(you know what i mean right)
and then really the hardest thing to get cling wrap-
to uncling to-
is
...drum roll...
itself.
(yep)
so thats why.
why i am like clingy-cling wrap
tangled up in my own
transparency or lack thereof.
...do i say it do i don’t...
...do i think that do i don’t...
why am i transparent and not?
why, i am transparent and not!
transparent and not.
(all at the same time)
at the same time. why?
cause im complex.
(oooh)
yep.
as complex as clingy-cling
wrap wrapped-up around itself.
who knew cling wrap had so many facets?
so many faces.
i see my face in the many facets of cling wrap.
why?
(good question)
