"Gypsy Punk"
Eyes blazed blue
Bathed in oddities
Pierced this or that
A beauty
Hidden or blatant
Frail in a Stooges T-shirt
From her ripped jeans
Peach skin peaks out teasing the normal
Ending harsh with black combat boots
London’s calling
Tempting or telling
Mocking the intolerant
Scorned by the bias of white America
She smiles just a pretty as the Christian bred
Contented with shaved hair or unnatural colors
She is sex embattled and emboldened
A sex pistol
Studded anything earns her looks
Hate, envy, desire
It’s all there
When she walks
One place to the next
She is a banshee
She is choice
She is she
She is life
