The Cigarette Girl
by Dawn Pisturino
An unlit cigarette dangled carelessly from her mouth.
Dark eyes glowed with ecstasy
As pointed fingernails dug furiously into her palm.
She inhaled sharply with each bloody gouge,
Enjoying the pain and sight of blood
Running onto the concrete floor.
She was known in the neighborhood as
The Cigarette Girl. . .
Please go HERE to read the rest of the poem.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Have a blessed Sunday.
