Cities and suburbs, real and imaginary.

she's a pretty girl

she's a pretty girl
she's a very pretty girl
with her leaf-green skin
and her eyes like silver sins
her ruby lips smirking dares
and jeweled serpents in her hair
and if she winks at loathsome you
do you know what you will do?
your swallowed heart will skip a beat
you'll hold a breath from head to feet
and the final thing you'll know
in your eyes that are aglow:
she's a pretty girl
she's a very pretty girl
with her leaf-green skin
and her eyes like silver sins
her ruby lips smirking dares
and jeweled serpents in her hair
and if she winks at you...
