Slice.

Through to reality, don't hold back, don't lie to me, 

I am not defined by the ribbon on top, not made by the sparkles we add,

the flavor we infuse, 

I am Me.

Solitary, made of my core, no decoration needed.

I do not have to fit into your box, don't have to be trimmed, made to fit into the round hole, 

No, I am a square peg, 

I will not have my edges sanded off just to appease your tastes and sensibilities.

I will not Bend, to fit under your bar, nor will I break, before the force of your command, 

I am Me.

I say what I mean, I don't aim to please.

I am a creature of skin and bone, I do not have to match your standards, your ideals, 

I am Me.

Slice.
