She Raised Red Flags At a Young Age

She raised red flags at a young age


it was the last day of high school
and he wanted to ask her out
to chill and hang, and be cool
to curb the summer drought

yet she was candid to a shout
yelling no to sushi king
his slant eyes and no bling 
over her pompous sheen

he cried the irony she sings
because she was a sushi queen
