Tale of Three

Tale of Three

Aileen in her red hat and yellow hair
straddling men and horses for her fair share
looking for riches that may come her way
as she juggles three jobs from day to day

Sue Ellen who strips down at Crazy Rock
divorced, still sports a heart sans key and lock
hoping to one day dress again in white
and dreams of a future that shines so bright

While by the bay in a far away place
Luani breaks tradition’s tight embrace
She will not be swayed, she uses her mind
learning from the past time has left behind

Different tales, yet not one of surprise
By product of a society’s rise
and morality’s fall, come to a head?
An argument that won’t be put to bed.
