Girlhood

ribbons in my hair,

nails painted red.

I think they\'d all be happier

if one of us was dead.

 

I miss the satin,

the silk, and the lace.

daddy doesn\'t love me,

he says I\'m a disgrace.

 

I sit on the lawn

under the sprinkler — oh, hi!

the magazine, awfully interesting.

awfully painful as I say goodbye.
