Gianna's Song Poem by Lee Crowell

Gianna's lyrics
are a perfect hook of a lie
for skeptics to hang their hats
a trail of twisted logic
an unfunny joke
for analyzers of words

Gianna's melody
cries out from the 'teach you a lesson' fractures
and 'do as you're told' humiliation
dished out by her trusted one

Gianna's rendition
longs for occasional laughs
and the gentle touch
with reckless abandon of fact
and a desperate belief
that the prayers will be answered
