ugh, idk. fun picture took too much time from me though.

Bandwidth or headtime? If bandwidth, I'll say
in my defense that I did reduce it from 300k to 60k;
if headtime, well... we all take chances.

Here is a scene, of when I rose above the hearth,
when reapers eyed my lovely crown before the start.

I stood as oily bruisers do and feigned
the visage of their grace in fake Duchenne.

They pasted all the gore with rapine pride
to show that there was never any crime.

It can be said, that this is my behead,
beset on lacquered wood above the bed

Charming, especially
"It can be said, that this is my behead,

Had to look up "Duchenne"; I'd venture " " isn't.

I think it's funny, but it isn't mattersome--are you wanting a rock-'em sock-'em pigpen edit, or are you happy with the thing?

I'm reasonably happy, though I love response.
I'm always hoping for parody, sincerity, or (best of all) both.

Explicatiously, the real question is: "Is she sincere?"
I think the using "heads" instead of them, and (especially)
the line two. The only decent valedictorian that would
use that construction is one that's mentally ill
(either that or an inchoate  writer).

P.S. As an inside joke (that has now escaped), that's a graduation
photo of Leanne. If she is the actual protagonist, then she is
quite sincere. But, knowing Leanne, the bodies are well hidden.
And, while she would be the obvious suspect, not a "shred" of
evidence would ever be found.
