blue moon girl

    [i am]
   UNIQUE!
    -so unique that i reek.
     i am
    a freak
    (FLAVOR)
      (of)
    (the week)
  I shine a peculiar
     Aquarian mystique
  an old boyfriend told me
    that i speak
   in parables
 kind of like
     Jesus Christ
   but i don't perform
    (miracles)
  and I am not
   NICE!
  when hit 
  with the truth
    i turn
   the other
    [cheek]
  and i lie and say
  I'm FINE
    as my blue eyes 
     [leak]
  my clothes are not
      chic
   my physique
  is no "10"
    and i do not seek
    the ways
     of Zen
 I'm guessing 
    around 80
   I'll reach
     my [PEAK!]
   maybe by then
   I'll find a 
      (man)
     who'll make my wheels
   [SQUEAK!]
