Squirrel Girl

I think of that girl She looked like a squirrel Her petty eyes unfurled a peculiar lip curl. Her love was a ball point pen that wouldn't work. Kept on scribbling for months and months, then it started working, and it wrote 'stop drinking all the ginger beer.' I'm a veteran of the poppy-seed war, commander of coke-snorting whores, severed now from fatal orgy bores.
