Teen Prom Queen
she walks in the promthe dark and light hit her eye
the music jumps out at her
she belongs to the music now
the song now starts
she goes out on the dance floor
her date gets closer
she belong to the date now
the song now ends
a voice announces
unitelligible word
they call her name
she walks to the stage
they all clap
she belongs to the crowd now
tiara on her head
a head of gilden hair
on the body of a cheerleader
she bows
pink lips
white teeth
too bright a smile
she walks off the stage now
a light follows her every move
her every thought obscured
she belongs to the thoughts now
The light dances with her
knows her like a kind friend
The dance reaches it's conclusion
she knows it can't end
she must make it last
she jumps on the stage
pulls out a gun
place it to the tiara
pulls the cold steel trigger
NOW SHE BELONGS TO NO ONE
she sees the crowd now
their mouth all agape
she owns the light
they can never have her light
the light plays tricks with the gore
like a child with a new toy
she feels herself lifted out
people gather to the carrion
pity sadness
no envy
she was brave
she floats higher
the light is with her now forever
