Hey Little Goth Girl

Sometimes it makes no sense.

May & December meet

Thick air, palm trees

Thirty dollar craft cocktails.

Oh, ethereal, sepulchral princess

Perfect blunt-cut raven hair

And is that a little jewel embedded at the corner of your eye?

You sneer beautifully

All cold chills & righteousness

Gatekeeping a cryptic scene

From olds like me.

Irony a holy-water dipped stake

As surely mommy & daddy listened to MJ, Madonna, and, queue gasp, Nirvana.

While I spun that promo copy of the band’s first album back in the day.
