You have lightning, but l wonder
How You flash without the thunder.

Answer me. Why can't YOU speak?
Can you tell your candle power?

That's your tail light. so it's said.
Don't you know it should be red?
Do you ever use a DINNER?
Can't YOU stop that awful glimmer?
Does your light come through a meter.
If it did, would life be Sweeter2

Save you trouble in that way.

Can you ever stop for breath
And not shock yourself to death?

Nearly five years had experience like that girls
But instead Of losing my job hung TO II and got the clothes
Nobody knows the struggle made TO get them with my
money Nobody knows the shame IL cost TO take my first
pair Of silk stockings and dear little soft snuggy blouse
from friend who said was foolish worry over such little
things clothes.
Dear Miss Grey II you persuade girls that the game
isn't worth the candle you will have done something that will
make hundreds Of them live TO be happy instead Of otherwise
No one knows the struggle girls make against the lure of
lovely things TO wear. II is a sin TO tempt them.
