The waterfall of tears she drops
Wreak havoc long before they stop
The sirens scream approaching cops
A wallflower in a dress
They bag and tag the hearts she stole
Enticed by dances on her pole
A death row stretch without parole
A wallflower in a dress
Less backbone than a jellyfish
Would never dare yet always wish
A sample for her petri dish
A wallflower in a dress
The darting eyes he found so sweet
Torpedoed his entire fleet
A bug that's crushed beneath her feet
A wallflower in a dress
With head held high she slowly Wades
Through champagne mixed with razor blades
Her heart dead set on future raids
The warrior princess

Well written, my friend, a powerful poem. Your poem explores the duality of a woman's experience—her fragility contrasted with her strength. It portrays her as a "wallflower," suggesting she is often overlooked or underestimated, yet she possesses an inner resilience and a desire for agency. The recurring imagery of tears, battles, and transformation illustrates her journey through emotional turmoil and societal expectations.
I enjoyed reading this review

Look but no touch doesn't get you much. Rev the engine then let out the clutch. Not sure what that means but I enjoyed your poem.
A poem as a review
Many thanks my friend
This feme fatale hides behind the guise of a wallflower to lure her prey? How alluringly deceptive. You paint a picture with words that is quite stunning. Great Write!
Sharp as a tack as ever Bella
Thank you very much
Lovely to see you
Hello, peto,
A warrior in a wallflower dress, beware the facade in this splendid composition. Great poetry, rhyme, rhythm and theme; in all without a doubt. Well done indeed.
Kind regards,
Tony.
