parading about the three way mirror of life's little

thread of vanity

she slims her cheaply beaded dress of sex laced happiness

by forsaking all acceptable realms that border insanity

(S)he is after all the 'Gypsy Love Fiend'

bread from an underground world of bar life, on

drag queen's prostitution and the drug scene

into the over filled house of despair and depression

with the aid of little red barbiturates

when (s)he applies her fragile mask of femininity

(s)he loses her own while (s)he loves all forms of manhood

(s)he leaves behind all hype and tripe to take to the

rough streets and cater to the overly masculine brood

as (s)he gregariously walks her designated area of

income

some would believe Her to be

the most brilliant and brightest of all the other

undesirables and street scum..........
