Miss Daisy

We always knew Miss Daisy
Was crazy. 
The way she said things 
Then played with her bangs. 
Her shirt
Covered in dirt
She let her head fall back 
And scream, "that was wack!"
But Miss Daisy, 
And her crazy
Didn't like to leave. 
And me being naïve
Thought it was okay. 
To say
"Miss Daisy, 
Just lately,
You've been 
Awfully thin.
Maybe we need 
To feed."
Miss Daisy
And her crazy. 
Unshapely
thin. 
Tiny
Small.
