Foolish, foolish girl.
You should know better than to
Gift swine with a lady's gems.

I would have drawn your tears  
Before you even knew my name if you
Placed your will in my

Two-faced hands. I have sides to me
That break beauty by habit,
That cannot be trusted with hearts.

Foolish girl. Others have wasted time
On me, then left. You should listen;
They were right to. I was there.  

Someone unknowing would say:
All men can be changed. They break
In the end... Get housebroken.


Someone knowing; knowing how some things  
Should hurt, would say: Let All Things Go
That Wish To.


Girl. So kind, so smiling to
Me from the outside, handing me a basket  
Cradling your every last egg.
