A Girl With No Name
There was a girl
who had eyes
that saw the world
in a gleam of
harsh yellow light
for just a moment
for those who know
all is revealed.
She had the touch
the curse which was given
through the metallic nights
of black and yellow
somewhere dusty
and rank where
the roaches can watch.
She could fathom
herself a Madonna
her tears the stigmata
but it was upon her thighs
she bleeds.
How could such a one
have any end but
a tragic one
her body left
but there would be none
to make a Saint of her
as she lay unknown
just as soon forgotten.
