ESCORTING BEAUTY TO THE UNDERWORLD
Beauty fell on Midnight dreary
Beauty fell on Midnight dreary
Leg of lamb had stood her up,
Walked with her into the darkness
(held her hair when she threw up).
(held her hair when she threw up).
Guiding her, as one deservéd, foot by foot, on tiptoes curled.
Leaning, sliding, moving forward, onward...
to the execution.
None as loving, none,
as trusted,
escort to the Underworld.
None as loving, none,
