Mary-Lee
The night was too cold tonight, cold winds kissed mary-lee's leg as she walked to the corner of the street where her car was waiting. She had one last show in New Orleans before she had to live for Italy. One more bad dream before she was finally free.
.......
"They are ready for you miss" this was it. She grabbed the cigar from the too drawer, lot it and placed it between her lips taking long drags as she walked into the stage.
"Hello New Orleans"
A thousand eyes watched her in love and admiration while some pigs watched in lust concentrating on the way her outfit outlined her body instead of listening to what she was saying.
"In a world of a thousand lies, in a few minutes the world makes sense, time stops and I see it for that moment, I see my reflection"
"Holding unto something higher that doesn't make sense but she said believe"
The crowd screamed the chorus with her bobbing their heads left and right to the lyrics of this stupid song that seemed to keep everyone up at night and everyone tired in the morning.
Later that night she sat at the edge of the window seat watching the Saints drops slowly fall to the floor wondering when she would ever be that free.
"Are you ready miss"
"As ready as I'll ever be"
