Discarded Mascara

A night girl takes the blame Plaster after plaster simply to pave A way for a better life. “Where is her shame?” Asks the dolled up go-go wife Leading her husband by his tie Like a collar around his neck. Sick. As she parades, reckless to strife. And the mistress? The same black tint that he kisses at home, here pours and pours On every visit. A discarded mascara bottle, discarded amore.
