Immortalized in song, Right or wrong, You defied your parents In the strongest way. Sister Emma, Quieter and kinder, Warned against Such impudence. Maggie the maid, Standing by silently, Spotted the bloodied dress You had to burn. Lizzie, even Midol Could not stop Your mad cycle Through an unloving family.

History remembers the maddened one in song, movies ect. Who will remember the gentle one. We remember Lizzie, Jack, Freddie, Manson, Frank and Jesse. Do we remember Sweet Kathleen or Dora Blanche. No. We say who are they? Life is interesting. My goodness. What got me started? See Ya Bon-Bon ![]() |
