Screaming Mimi.

She left this world much the way she came in,
still kicking and screaming and conceived in sin.

Well, I guess that some people will never learn. Therefore, as a result, they hit the skids and burn. I like the imagery in this epigram and the historical backdrop. Great job! Joseph

This is how many enter and leave the world, though your description can be interpreted as either humor or serious. Congratulations on your win in Brian's contest! Love, Carolyn
