Doll Face

A steel box reflecting off the screen of the TV, like prey in the eyes of a hunter. The box opens and she is alive, she is born. She is plain and gray like clay, ready to be molded and soak in anything she sees. The TV turns on and it begins, she is exposed to the media. 

 An image of a woman, the media and society portray as beautiful, appears and she is intrigued. The woman with makeup is the only thing she sees on TV so she thinks beauty is created with makeup. She puts on makeup to mimic the image but right when she thinks she is happy and looks good, the image and meaning of beautiful change. She gives herself a skin color of what the TV shows is appropriate but then, of course, the trends change. 

All the changes soon become too much for her, it is too much for anyone to keep up with. She destroys herself, like many people do, before she can realize she is trying to be something she can never be. 

She destroys herself trying to satisfy society.
