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
