Lena's Lament


      Heroines fought battles, overcame
      hardships to proclaim victory
      Lena's sedentary reel, same same 
      Pristine paged humdrum story


      Secure foundation led steadily wed
      Chores' blur bolstered home
      Wholesale whore for husband's bed
      Battle liberated life bemoan


      Pencil skirt vixens strut on television
      Bold shoulder pads deception
      Kids' Father ensured ample provision
      Fed a fortress family protection 


      Frumpy comfort hot oven soap opera
      Glazed gaps, glassed gorgeous
      Razzmatazz Rochelle dating a doctor 
      Lena's latent longing engorges


      

                   27th June
           Heaven for Heathens
