Nique:
Temporal rage was found on her most simple days,
while make - up covering drowned her pimple face.
It sent distaste.. shattered she, unloads her honor,
On fast food splurges.. calories' her closest comfort.
Unspoken wonder, spent dazed follow her phases appalled,
mirrors shattered.. ripped pages of models taped on the wall.
Her fascination was flawed.. high school provided them both,
'Miss Piggy'.. cried from their throats, her nose was wider than most.
Undeniably slow - years were hell, and the pain that evolved,
her body imperfect, insecurity forced her to change in the stalls.
In danger and mauled.. by guys who barricaded the truth,
ripped from her innocence.. constantly confiscated her youth.
Years go by, and what she deserved she certainly gets,
and what she didn't .. the extra baggage the surgeries fixed.
The urgency with her life while hauling an assignment,
of simple perfection.. executing a barbie doll at its finest.
The hottest of climates, her body's a sunny day with a breeze,
the sunshades with her grief.. spending the coldest days on her knees.
Vivacious with needs.. she was never looking for love,
but the thrusts of manhood.. the variety sent from above.
..the stench, simple, he tugged - on the side of her blouse,
his conversation defiant and out, while she's eyeing, aroused.
Buying her rounds.. she chooses to drink, so treachorous, more,
Unexpected.. excuses to brink and head for the door.
At her house, a leveling score.. caressing and kissing,
legs tangled, like body art.. impressions efficient.
She stops him - a sudden tease controlling the mood,
seductively ordering that he should go to the room.
Lays on the bed, handcuffed, he protrudes.. a smile on his face,
She comes out, eyeing his waist.. grip on a knife, she's irate.
"You don't remember me?.. taken her pride and dignity,
the night you decided to strip me of my life, virginity!?"
Cutting off his genitals.. his screams, wretched and scarred,Flashback: Article from The Daily Freeman
Last night, girl drugged and raped, her exigence grounded,
on the fact that no one believes her, no evidence founded.
A new day and night follow.. content, she heads for the bar..
Cormier:
Not a shocking scene, just the same old down-trodden theme
Cigarette smoke and liquor mixing with forgotten dreams
But some were there for more, completely prepared to pour
Their hearts and souls out for anyone who would dare explore
But you can be fairly sure that that wasn’t exactly true of Rob
Just one of the regulars hoping that tomorrow he’d lose his job
Feeling so alone, thinking, “How have we gotten where we are?”
Just then he spotted from afar a leggy blonde goddess at the bar
Feeling brave from all the shots of Jack and beer
He decided to give it a try; what did he have to fear?
Her name was Emily, and as the two conversed
Rob’s heart pounded and he began to feel Cupid’s curse
He said, “Your eyes are as bright as any of the stars tonight”
That made the sparks ignite and she was his to his heart’s delight
Back at Robs, they were sharing a few laughs and drinks
But then Emily’s world started spinning too fast to think
She began to feel woozy and her sight was blurred
She fell to the ground and heard Rob’s frightful words
“You don’t remember me do you? I have changed a bit
But maybe you’ll remember my brother, Shane Meritz”
Flashback: Article from The Daily Freeman
Last night an 18 year old boy hung himself; the police found a note
Saying his cheating girlfriend was why the noose was around his throat
“You changed your looks, but I could never forget your eyes
And I swore at my brother’s funeral that this bitch would die……..
