I'Ll Paint This Dress Red
Alice
Come here dear
The young blue-eyed girl
Skips to her grandmother
What should I wear to this dreadful ball?
The little girl stared furiously for three seconds
The blue-eyed girl eagerly pointed her finger at
The Silky white rhinestone laced ball gown
Oh really !!!
what an awfully dull choice….
Didn’t I tell you to be useful!!
The little girls smile vanished as quick as it appeared
The grandmother stands
I’ll pick this red dress
Thank the lord heaven above I don’t
Listen to retarded children
The girl stands there a smile still plastering her face
The grandmother screams
Why didn’t I just give you away
To your old drunkard bastard of a father
she paces around the room and stops
Come here dear!!!
She screams
The grandmother offers out her hand
The girl walks forward
Ill pick your dress
The girl smiles
Really grandmother
Yes
Ill paint this dress red
