    About this ebook

    Color Me Pencil
    is a dark tale of ill
    about a girl cursed
    by evil rehearsed,
    bringing about a hex
    worse than vex.

    She drool
    on an ebony spool.
    Shortly after, a black pool
    appears on the floor,
    turning her
    into a mess
    with stains on her dress.

    Her lips, a glamorous black,
    wished her lover back . . .

    Holding her bony,
    bruised knee,
    she wondered who
    would rescue
    she,
    covered in ebony?

    Dismayed,
    she shrill,
    Color Me Pencil.
