Grim black pearls, parrot eyes
The kind that hypnotize
Incorporate the blues
Sad scene, scarlet lies
Oh curious moon!
Such a horrible sight
Ruthless stars are hidden
Dark clouds and blinding light
Streak the tragic night
Filled with electric ooze
She was a tornado
Tossing him around
The puddles of pink gore
The mashed tomato
Traded the pain for Glory
Perhaps she’d expected
An evil evening full of dread
Blood-soaked crimson shoes
These red-faced boos
But only for a second
Bad lady, baby bird
You ran without a word
You dared to flee your crime
Audacious and absurd
You’ll regret the end of time
But they’ll miss you by morning
After the Good Night news
Let you off with a warning
Your eyes embellished with
Mastered, bastard tears!
The aftermaths are minimal
There’s grace for the criminal
Egos only bruise
Bad news is subliminal
No one really boos

Superficial man geeks tangle
while paranoid tan freaks mangle
your one true chance
in a delusional dance
to give it your best

Adorned in her little pink party dress
She plays and sings and dances amongst her family tree
Her youthful innocence free

Crime
Speaks with intentions
Followed by the act
The jury
The judge
The witnesses
The lawyers
Shall see a picture
