Blankets of snow sway to & fro.
(I could be so pretty if only my hair would grow)
Pockets of ash empty on cash.
(I could be so pretty with one longer lash)
Hands filled with sand begging for land.
(I could be so pretty if my skin was slightly tanned)
Jars filled with tips; anchors with no ships.
(I could be so pretty if i had luscious lips)
Eyes drowned in tears from faraway years.
(I could be so pretty after 19 more beers)
Memory lane is flooded with rain.
(I could be so pretty if I wasn't so vain)
Siphon this liquor just a little bit thicker.
(I could be so pretty if these lights would flicker)
Porcelain filled with tea resting on my knee.
(I could be so pretty if I only weren't me)
