She Scares Me
I have the most tasteful skulls imaginable she said.
I did not think there could be such a thing but kept quiet instead.
They are beautifully done, would look great in a bedroom.
I took her word for it, could barely see them on Zoom.
I have vampire teeth and a cape left over from Dracula too.
Do you want to come by, she asked me? Her face was all blue.
Her teeth had blood dripping, and they gave me a fright.
Not right now, I told her. I have big plans for the night.
