A she progeny cursed
Erupts like a dormant gurgling spring
beds of hot coals cant burn her feet
a source, tumbling `or stones, advancing
beware, and best luck if you compete
Came from the womb, sense of menace forming
with the attitude of flaming hair
carrying a red triangle warning
"whatever- I don`t care"
Her life of lace and tattered rags
the morals were trampled
mysteries, the runes foretold, strewn from the muslin bag
no homespun Goddess, just a wild example
not held, or restrained
this wild mare paws the air
her mother wails with loud complaints
domesticity and lacking manners fair
That missing knitted bond
frustrated love spread with despair
comb cant unpick a ticking bomb
tread the path no others dare
Abandoned dance, torso and limbs
its origin follows any feckless whim
replica Josephine Baker dwells within
a cavorting mind, subconscious vim
A free spirit born to fight and wrestle
an aching wish, that never will subside
My she angel, witch or devil
the other me, lies deep inside
beds of hot coals cant burn her feet
a source, tumbling `or stones, advancing
beware, and best luck if you compete
Came from the womb, sense of menace forming
with the attitude of flaming hair
carrying a red triangle warning
"whatever- I don`t care"
Her life of lace and tattered rags
the morals were trampled
mysteries, the runes foretold, strewn from the muslin bag
no homespun Goddess, just a wild example
not held, or restrained
this wild mare paws the air
her mother wails with loud complaints
domesticity and lacking manners fair
That missing knitted bond
frustrated love spread with despair
comb cant unpick a ticking bomb
tread the path no others dare
Abandoned dance, torso and limbs
its origin follows any feckless whim
replica Josephine Baker dwells within
a cavorting mind, subconscious vim
A free spirit born to fight and wrestle
an aching wish, that never will subside
My she angel, witch or devil
the other me, lies deep inside
