Strings

A dancer on the edge of dreams 

Where nothing's quite the way it seems 

Placed all her champions into teams 

And pulled upon their strings 

She led them to her web of lies

A flash of skin to strengthen ties

Her blatant crimes and alibis

Help pull upon their strings 

A juggler of the highest class 

Turned ashen faced attending mass

The vicar blushed her brazen pass

To pull upon his strings 

Her self esteem is low at best 

Helps justify her heartless quest 

To gather men into her nest 

And pull upon their strings 

The love she sought was close at hand 

A rugged handsome one man band 

The beach's finest grain of sand 

She dropped her ball of strings
