What I Did

You know, the last thing I did before you
escorted me out was
Dye my hair red, a bright red.

Believe me when I say this.

Everything was on fire. My hair was red
And the sink was red
And the bathroom tiles were slick with
Red red red

And everything was aglow.

And then after, you know what I did?
I put makeup on.
Yes, I colored my eyebrows with a chocolate brown pencil.

And then, well then,
I put purple eyeliner on.
Yes, I outlined my eyes with a royal purple eyeliner.

And then, hear this,
I put pink eyeshadow on.
Yes, I powdered my eyelids with a baby pink eyeshadow.

Now my pink eyelids glitter glitter glitter
And my purple rimmed eyes shine shine shine
And my red hair burns burns burns
    a smoke signal

But there isn’t anything you can do to mask me.
