Liza - I Will Defend

I will defend You
You with your tattoos
Tattoos of Blues and Jazz
Tattoos of your Krew
Muse on with your Magazine
Magazines of people like you
People not like you eating
Eating your fondue
Fondue of the not so fond
I will defend You
You when you need not defending
You that they call New

Liza, age 16
