Coquette

& You know you're
gonna lie to you
in your own way

know know too well
know the chill
know she breaks
my siren

I never was one
for a
prissy girl
coquette
call in for
an ambulance
reach high
doesn't
mean she's
holy
just means
she's got a cellular
handy
almost
brave
almost
pregnant
almost in love.

Vanilla, vanilla

and you don't need the light
to guide you through this.

Tori Amos, Siren.
