In The City

A girl of sixteen summers,
Pickpocket, cut-throat.
A thief that rules the city,
Despising all she is.

Daughter of sixteen autumns,
Loving child, servant.
A maid that follows orders,
Submissive to a fault.

An Amazon of sixteen winters,
Fighting for survival.
A battle with the cold streets
Chilled to her bones.

A lady of sixteen springs,
Seductress, enchantress.
Weaving magic of lust and love,
Determined to stay alive...
