Sense Sonnet - Steamer

 Odile


I be given Odile as name

In the well known "Swan Lake" ballet,

Billed as a villainess, my fame,

Black swan by night, cute gal by day,

Who tricks the charming prince into

Promising me his loving vow.

My evil daddy made me do

Such an enticement, but somehow

The ending really should have had

Me dancing away with my prince.

Because I'm good at being bad,

Deserve top billing prominence.


I await in lake waters black

To be the star in my comeback.
