the simple strawmen

[wasellajam]

Hi, milo, I'm pretty lost here, just can't get it. Some notes on my read:

the simple strawmen

we are the simple strawmen
mannequins, the common-common,
the substitute for sweet,
the answer
So the N plus one or many, everyday shams. No idea about "the answer"

and yet your middle fattens
and you get cancer 
wanting alabaster

walmart grecian statues made of plaster
hollow. Hollow. hollow -
spill your saccharine and follow
Past just empty, rotten. And suburban.

the glow, the daytime doctor charmer
take your pills
and wish for somewhere warmer
No idea what this is about except the somewhere warmer discontent or chill

sleep.  and if your sleep is haunting
rorschach paper crows then tear them
don't. dress in cast-off clothes and scare them
No idea and can't make sense of "tear them don't."

oh simple-simple 
how you fear one thought will break us
or morning light unmake us.
Here's the poem that makes me keep coming back to try and get the rest, lovely.

I feel like there are clues here I just can't get, even common/hollow/simple. My confusion is keeping me from enjoying any nuances that the poem may hold. I hope someone else can be of more help.
Thanks for posting it, I enjoyed trying. Good morning!
