There she lay in the road
Unloved and forgotten
Miles and miles from home

She slept with the pigs
Born on an West Texas farm
Whipped to shovel and dig
Welts on her skinny little arms

Yellow eyed and beautiful
Face turned to threads
A face so memorable
Hair, soft, ruby red

A touch unforgettable
Her hand remained so soft
A love so unattainable
A love once here then lost

Unloved as the memories
That consumes her soul
Afraid to tell the true story
Of her rise and perpetual fall

Cumbersome was her task
Resolving the recollections she’d fear
She only need not ask
Her ticking clock, dreadfully near

A true pioneer, first of her kind
She left Adam, the snake and the apple behind
At a crossroads lost in space and time
Eve now awaits three angels of her own kind
