The wife is standing ower there, <br />Wondering what she's gonna wear, <br />Since she's ta'en the time and care, <br />Doing up her bloody hair. <br /> <br />So I put to her, a dare. <br />I dared her to go oot bare, <br />She looked at me, her eyes did glare, <br />I thought that she was gonna swear. <br /> <br />(But) ... <br /> <br />'Every~one would stop and stare, <br />At a sight that was so rare. <br />They'd think I was a silly mare, <br />Or even worse, not quite all there.'<br /><br />Lizzy Tomlinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/-20/
