The Vulpine Caitiff



She is a callous Circe
She is a brutal soul
She is devoid of mercy
She is out of control

She is a wily Brigand
She is a crooked soul
She is a vile artisan
She is out of control

She is a greedy Vulture
She is a selfish soul
She is a hasty multure
She is out of control

She is a venal Harlot
She is a corrupt soul
She is a debased varlet
She is out of control

She is a vulpine Caitiff
She is a roguish soul
She is a tenacious stiff
She is out of control
