Just a Gal

There was a gal

I used to know.

She liked the downs.

She loved the snow.

A one horse crankin

psychedelic show;

then she blew her brains out



She wore tattoos

Beneath her scars;

Buzzed around

In dives and bars,

Rolling drunks

and jacking cars,

Until she blew her brains out.



She'd rob ya blind

and hang with whores;

Do shady deals

behind closed doors.

I guess she'd handle

the fun no more,

And blew her friggin brains out.

I really liked the grittiness of the poem; very revealing of the subject.

I find this poem amazing! Your rhythm is on step more than mine so good.. your poem is titled Just A Gal, but for the girl being just a gal you seem to know a lot about her, or at least the person writing abouter her, ya know?? neat though.. neat
