And she came to me
Her lips painted ruby red
In cigarette smoke

Epiphany

Newspapers scrape streets
Bruise covered mascara veins
Bourbon winds provoke

Wearing stilettos
Derringer in her stockings
Breast to draw him in

"Hello there", she lied
Like a lapdance standing up
I almost believe.

She was buck naked
Save her gun and holster
She said, “Stick Em Up!”

Finger on trigger
Muzzle to my head, she purred
“Giddy-up or die”
