• Egyptian eyes
    Smoky legs
    Your pretty black shoes that shine

    I wish all that were mine
    I wish I were beautiful too
    With the same muddy cake eyes

    But you are trapped
    In a crashed world
    Hiding your pain

    But when you get home
    You’re different than they know
    So different……

    Because you’re trapped
    In a brutal boxing cage
    That makes your skirts longer
    And your Egyptians eyes wash away.
