The Three Little Girls

​Three Little Girls were growing up in this world.

The first little girl became Miss American Sweetheart,
A subservient Martha Stewart aficionado,
Overcompensating waifer-of-a-mind homemaker.
​
The second little girl, after a childhood of 
Fighting to get to the top
And breaking the rules in favor of her own,
Had a very different adulthood. 

She is tough as steel filings,
A take-no-shit bitch,
Uninhibited, unrestrained.

Like spit on a griddle, she’s wild and real, ambitious and seductive --
A go-getter who takes as many
Prisoners and lovers as she desires.
​
She walks tall, dreams big, and blows “buh-bye” kisses
With a wriggle of her hips as she exits the door,
Leaving the boys behind broken.

The third little girl was a combination of the other two.
She grew up trying to decide who she wanted to be,
What would push her to ride hard and stand tall,
And what she could take
Make-it-or-break-it style
From raw experience.

She combined the best of both worlds,
And tempered every bit of devil inside
With a little angel,
Enough so that
It felt right.

That last little girl was me♥
