lyrics

LITTLE MISS TAKEN

Little Miss Taken,
in dresses on comets,
on cupid, she ponders
the debris of promises
sprinkled on lovers,
they bath them in cinnamon.
Am I her hair dryer
brought here to do them in?

Little Miss Taken
has eyes like two planets
and rolls them around me,
but I am no sunbeam,
nor statue to liberty
surfaced from rockface,
like gators from rivers
near purple heart highways.

Little Miss Taken,
like Indians ends it,
on antlers, on oak trees,
in bathtubs with toasters.
Will she noose her nerve somewhere
in the couch cushions
and dash out a Squanto,
his shadows all over her?

DAS - Denver, Colorado, USA
