Eye Makeup
she crawling to the top of the ladder
suits torn broken ladder
eye make up pearl bracelet
one foot in the grave
the other in the basement
can't be a gentleman
she's a chaser
she cannot be a replacer
Ink on the scars
so no one can
erase her
beautiful deadly
beautiful bad dream
I have to leave the door locked
my keys in my pocket
yer possession are your
obsessions
Why bother to dream anymore
It's lousy dead ends with just too many questions
we're walking away from one another
