A Good Little Girls Zine

Easily she parts the curtains,
strides on stage towards the audience below
never once pausing

Her body glides from stage right to left
upstage to downstage
performing is the only way to live
and she won’t quit

even when
she is challenged, and pushed around, and rejected

this is the drive of a female lead.

Do you see her, right in front you,
eyes like two spotlights burning into your heart?
