Rebel

perfect imperfection Margarita on the rocks Impetuous with direction Pigheaded as an ox Shaken not stirred Pepsi not coke Rarely deterred Deaf when you spoke Tenacious in a squabble Fixed in a stance With liquor she won't wobble It's an everyday dance Prideful to a fault An air of mystery Her decisions taut Writes her own history If your opinion contradicts No need to refute Her tongue will throw bricks She'll play you like a flute But inside she is harmless Tasted heaven and hell Her confidence, far less Beneath her shell Brick walls, she constructed Her father played part Purity and youth, he destructed Placing guards around her heart If you take the time to tame her A delightful feast You realize you couldn't blame her For portraying a beast
