Little Rebecca
LITTLE REBECCA HAS WONDERING EYES
SHE SMILES AND WAVES TO A MAN IN A BLACK COAT
THE STRANGER RETURNS HER GESTURE
WHILE MOMMY AND DADDY WAGE NEW WAR WITH EACH OTHER
LITTLE REBECCA GETS A LITTLE OLDER
SHE SMILES AT A BOY ON A BLACK CORNER
HE STEALS HER INNOCENCE BEFORE RETURNING HER SMILE
SHE LIMPS HOME TO AN EMPTY HOUSE
LITTLE REBECCA YET GETS OLDER
SHE SMILES AS SHE WALKS INTO A LOCAL STRIP CLUB
OWNER AND PATRONS SMILE AT HER DEVELOPMENTS
PROPERTY SHE BECOMES, MOMMY AND DADDY ARE MILES AWAY
LITTLE REBECCA QUICKLY AGES
SHE SMILES AS A RANDOM JOHN HALTS HIS MERCEDES
HE SMILES AS SHE INHALES HIS COKE, THEN STRANGELS HER TO DEATH
MOMMY AND DADDY ARE REMINDED THEY HAD A DAUGHTER
LITTLE REBECCA IS DEAD
SHE'S NOT SMILING ANYMORE
NO ONE SMILES AT HER FUNERAL
DADDY REGRETS, MOMMY KILLED HERSELF THE NIGHT BEFORE
MEANWHILE......
LITTLE REBECCA AND THOSE WONDERING EYES
LOOKS AT THE MAN IN THE BLACK COAT AND SMILES AGAIN
HE GLANCES AT MOMMY AND DADDY IN THOUGHT, FAINTLY SMILES BACK
WISHING MOMMY AND DADDY WOULD TURN AND SMILE AT HER
