everybody's candle girl
um,
h-hey!
hi!
(gulp!)
s-so,
back in your days
of obscurity
you must have
(you must have) fancied
and so wished
when you awoke
a-sweaty, doll-less,
rejected and bleary-eyed
in the dinginess
of your rented bedrooms
that upon first witnessing
the sun
slide lugubriously
over another balmy
Hollywood morning,
it dawned (ha! but no pun intended!
really)
on you
that if if it twere in your
nimble tho' meagre power
you'd take a pickaxe
and coast over all
that sunbeam superhighway
to that great star
from eight minutes away
(no traffic, hopefully)
and try and hack it apart
in search of any gold
(a sunlode!)
to possess,
(you know, because it resembles
a ball of gold (as per Crane))
but you would know
full well the absurdity of that,
yes?
if the sun were of gold,
if dirt were dollars,
if
if
if...
but what's worth the gain
of such wealth?
it isn't really
what you want,
right?
A O A T O
D R I N !!!!!!
NICE!!!
nice?
yes/no?
but is
it love?
and o, but
the wolves
rape/rap/
reap
o,and/but-but

jackals
(no, I don't mean you)
OK, so
no I love you's
or I adore you's
or I'd die for you's
many and treacly thick
as smiling sunflowers
in a puckered minefield
because you already know
well, I suppose exceptions
may be made
for Artie 'n' Joey
('n' Miltie too)
you 'n' me?
we're buds, 'k?
we real cool
so wake up this morning
as yourself
with
twizzled hair,
diamond smile,
merry gaze,
star-shapen,
sun-molded
(in other words, perfect)
arch your back
like a vertical cat
and sing
(SING!!!)
sing naked
in freedom
and with divine joy
to your heart's content
up ahead
at the Altar of Bliss,
for you are loosed
good morning,
la femme eternelle
mwah
