The Last Sitting of Marilyn Monroe
Don't bother to knock, she's
not taking any visitors today
--something has to give.
You wanted her
in your picture, didn't you?
But the names they assigned her
were uncommonly harsh.
They hung their hats
on her *** appeal, then
threw her to the dogs
when she no longer looked the part.
She never did overcome
her shyness, preferring to
swallow small silent friends
instead, and for this
she was crucified.
Pin-up or shut-in,
it's no wonder she chose to
sleep it off.
She may have bared
her body, but never her soul.
