girls that pop into your head before blowing your brains out.


they lament your having a bad day

mourn the good times gone


they bank every smile

every joke

every pleasantry


rich


as if you were a bad actor

and not a damn great one


swimming amid the occasional gulp of water

not the odd breath of air


holding their breath thinking you’re trying to hold yours

now


and it isn’t because of the girl with the disney princess name


but how couldn’t it be

about that cruel barefaced bitch

that real mother

happiness Herself
