From Stephanie S. Garcia

Welcome

"Whatever, so it seems"

Pluck me now, my proud feathers, all the better

My life's wetter

Lay me down in a field of heather

Angel's in for stormy weather

Wings of black suede dated pleather

Remember you made me, well, whatever

Whatever baby, so it seems

Took away just a few more today

Let's talk because there is so little left to say

Tell me, I'll listen anyway

She's not so rare a doll, so it seems

Strawberries floating in bowls of sweet cream

You keep the blanket; I don't want to play

Keep it in your truck

For little Miss Hand Me Down anyway

Just remember, when she bites the hand that pays

Babe, you made her that way, you say which or whether

Whatever, so it seems

Keep telling yourself it's cloud and not steam

Hold your eyes tight to the high beams

Whatever, honey, so it seems

More than today and less than tomorrow, all your dreams

Dumped out of that rusty can of sorrows

You possess only that which grows outside the seams

Don't forget, when I'm ugly and dangerously mean

Whatever, you made  me

No maiden

You madden me

So it seems

Between black stitches and lusterless sheen

I tried to show you what grew behind the curtain

But you, in all your wisdom, you were so damn certain

So it seems, you loved the lies

Your fingers still sticky from that jar of flies

Living off a comb from a busy hive

You saw what you wanted to see to get by

So it seems, I'm not so clean

Whatever...

Squeaky means tequila, rock-n-roll leather

So it seems

Horrors on the nighttime screen

You're disappointed, so,

Sew its seams
