Bad Girl
I’m just a bad girl
glock cocked, finger on trigger
a smoking pistol
Cold barrel–my kiss
Smoke wafts, spent shell cases roll
Lipstick on my gun
Chalk outlines my ex
Bullet hole in his forehead
Ruby beads I lick
Heels click, fishnets rip
Bustier strains to hold me
My come hither stare
Knife flicks, cuts him down
Bite sized snack, then throw him back
Nail file sharpens fangs
My thousand yard stare
Ignites all who stop and stare
No money, no show
To ashes you fall
Make my war paint, I smear you
‘neath my smoke-filled eyes
Leap off skyscraper
Wings extrude tearing my clothes
Snap as they unfurl
My wings scissor night
To ribbons of city light
I own all in sight

Ha! F-I-E-R-C-E! 😀
I knew you’d say that! 🙂 thank you!
2nd Amendment needs to be repealed, otherwise how good guys will date bad girls with a gun:)
you bring up a good point… 😉
🙂 🙂
Goodness gracious! (I enjoyed these!)
Thank you 🙂 Maybe there’s some bad girl in you too?
Not really. I just enjoy reading about bad girls and bad boys. I was an obedient little girl. Got rebellious much later, and even in that, the rebellion was tame, less bad than breaking away from tradition.
I hear you! I am the same way 🙂
Would love to experience…’the other side’. 😉 Hugs!
The good girl? I am actually working on her take 🙂
You do that…she’s there, I am absolutely sure…..in disguise, I suspect. 😉
I am the good girl 🙂
I guess I knew that. Hugs. ❤️
You guess? Was there ever a question?
Don’t think there ever was….. 😉
Phew…big sigh of relief there 🙂
Big Hugs!!!!! <3
Oh wow, big hugs to you too!
😉
Truly awesome badassery!
thank you! 🙂
You’re welcome!
😀
Yes! Love the imagery here, Mel! Bad asses are definitely my thing 😉 So much gusto in this poem.
Have you had some copyright issues?
Thank you 🙂 it was fun letting my inner bad girl out to play and yes I have had some copyright issues 🙁
That sux butt 🙁
Yeah I reported it to Google. Do is in their hands
Wow. Very different subject for you, yet still very focused and well constructed. You’re an excellent writer, so I’m not surprised. I get the tone from this right away. Nice!
Wow, awesome. Love vampires. Excellent writing.
I’m a guy and I like it! I respect it.
Melinda, you are the hottest badass I know. I’m so happy to see familiar verses here. More death by badassery. Kill them! 🙂 and make them yearn for death in your corset. 😉
I think you should write more in this trend. There is something very strong here that you need to keep working on expressing. I have a pyjama I wear often which says Good girls go to heaven Bad girls go everywhere 🙂
I love that! Bad girls go everywhere! That’s so true and awesome. Okay I will keep indulging my inner bad girl, She is tired of my good girl, workaday ways anyway 🙂
Ultimately we are to attain balance so neither always good girl nor always bad girl is the way forward 🙂 Keep indulging and sharing your thoughts and wonderful writing. We are meant to explore our light as our darkness and finally understand that light and darkness are intertwined and one means nothing much without the other
that is so true. You are such a wise woman. I am so glad to have met you and received your wisdom. Thank you for pointing that out so eloquently!
Welcome Melinda. Methinks you already knew that but perhaps were slightly chaining yourself because of social considerations 🙂
You weren’t kidding and you have not disappointed. These ae awesome, Melinda and you most certainly are, a bad girl when you want to be. Phew. I just broke out the night light – the first time in thirty-five years 🙂
thank you, I did warn you…I’d never act out any of these things but it’s kind of scary that I could conceive of them…I think I need to break out a night light too…which sucks because I can only sleep in total darkness…
You are welcome…yes, you did 🙂 Haha, yes, I love the darkness, too, when it comes to sleep. 🙂
Do you think it’s too risque?
No, not at all. It’s a side of you I love seeing because it’s different than anything else you write. It shows off your versatility as a writer 🙂
ah so you want more of this. I can do it. I can write anything except a newspaper article.
Yes, please 🙂 Oh, come now, I am sure you could write the entire newspaper and increase sales ten fold 🙂
eh I don’t know. Never tried journalism. Worked in PR as a college intern and it was like wearing a strait jacket. Not something I’d like to repeat.
Yes, the creative spirit does not enjoy restraints of any kind. i get that 🙂
I knew you would 🙂
🙂 🙂
Love this. Most men can’t handle them, but I am an admirer of Bad girls. NIcely done.
Thank you 🙂 I admire bad girls too. I am the flip side of their darkness/badness
That is sweet. Nothing wrong with being a good girl. When you get to know me you will learn I am veey pro-women. Hey, I am posting a piece tomorrow called “Badasserie.” Inspired by you, Annie, and Manon. Hope you have a moment to read it. Have a great night. I willbe visiting you more often. Your writing is a pleasure to read.
Thank you! shoot me the link please! I am about to fall asleep and I don’t want to forget tomorrow. I usually sneak reads at work and I miss posts sometimes because I have to X out of WP when my boss swings past. when i reopen the reader again, I have lost my place. So if you would be so kind as to just paste the link in your reply to this comment that would be a big help! Sometimes fridays are chaotic at work.
I will send you the link tomorrow. I am finalizing it right now. Sweet dreams.
Ooooh my. I wouldn’t dare messin’ wit’ you!!
Loved this!!
Thank you! There were some stanzas that didn’t make it into Death by Badassery, so I added to them and posted them because a certain blogger wanted to read more badassery.
LOL ‘certain blogger’. Hope they love this because if not – well we still have our guns, right?
yes! 🙂
