Battered Bunnies


The lipstick burns,

The eye shadow stings,

My hair's been shorn and colored.

My sister cries, my mother died,

All for your frivolous things.

 

I’m not saying you should stop,

I’m just telling you the truth,

There’s many more just like me.

I hope your perfume smells real good.
