Lucinda

Lucinda once a woman who'd been buried many years ago

Now tired of her resting she crawled from the grave she laid 

She didn't understand her neighbors, comfortable and cozy 

Who had visitors who knelt with them and listened as they prayed 

Lucinda once a woman was a woman men would marry

She'd had the bluest eyes that any man had ever seen

And often at her fancy she would lay right down beside them

And take those men to places where no man had ever been

Lucinda walked for miles towards her final destination 

And soon stood at the doorway of her well remembered home

He hadn't moved her key from underneath the garden rock 

And so she walked right in and found that he was sleeping all alone

Lucinda stood awhile and she just gazed upon the man

The very man who'd killed her with the poison that he gave

She saw a bottle by his side and thought that she might do the same

And send this vile creature to his well deserving grave

Lucinda though had other plans and slid beneath the silky sheets

And put an arm around him in the way she used to do

It wasn't long before the pig beside her gave a smile

Aware that down beneath the sheets anticipation grew

Lucinda sat upon him and she let him have his moment

Then he opened up his eyes and gave an agonizing cry 

The woman that he'd murdered was the corpse that sat upon him

The very one he'd poisoned and had watched once slowly die

Lucinda felt his heart as it beat heavy in his heaving chest

It stopped just like a broken clock and didn't make a sound

She felt a little tired and so returned back to the graveyard

Where at last she found her peace beneath the cemetery ground
