A view from dumb Lucy's ghetto

Her tumbledown castle in pitch-black under a starry night.
And she looks at the hallucinogenic sky.
A capricious marriageable star that's burning red
Like her wounded heart.
She dreams that one day someone who comes like a meteor to take her hand and goes to the paradise?
