Her body made a huge map
Even a cat was having a nap
Painted all over in a snap
Her tattoos shone like a lamp
§
Like Graffiti telling tales
She even had a few males
Who seemed like they were in jail
And needed money to make their bail
§
Two of them drank ginger-ale
And another a simple tattle-tale
The other man had a long ponytail
And he sang like a Nightingale
§
She had a dragon too
Whose breath was hot all through
It kept her warm at night
When it was no longer light.
