reverse cinderella
she was always sleeping with the wrong people
her friends had warned her
her friends had warned her
she might wake up desperate or worse
discover she’d become cinderella in reverse
discover she’d become cinderella in reverse
she fell for artists and musicians
men with failing shops
men with failing shops
sculptors living in basements
with very big dogs
with very big dogs
one day she met a banker
with an extremely small heart
with an extremely small heart
she said to herself she’d love him
and help his heart enlarge
and help his heart enlarge
he showered her with vacations
she shared her passion for the arts
she shared her passion for the arts
she made him a patron
of all her friends’ work
of all her friends’ work
decades spun her head
she found herself rich and alone
she found herself rich and alone
up until her death she was never sure
if she took the right way to go
if she took the right way to go
