Crush

Susie sassed some stupid scoundrels 
they tried to take her treasure
Bobby blew back barbaric barbs
Susie shook some soot off her sweater
lovely little lights lit the large lake
promising perfect midnight persuasions 
Susie sat still staring silently 
bobby won't be back before breakfast
he had his handsome hazed gaze on her
