You're here - you're alive - with one more day on your plate.

I pray that in my Eternity,
I'll meet Shelley, Poe and Emily
That we'll all sit down at a table round,
And at length discuss our Poetry!

"Save Our Sisters!"

Many girls lost, many girls missed
Many girls lost, never to be Ms.

fills the pretty pretty air with smog-
