Marilyn Monroe
August 5, 1962
the nightmare
a tortured poet
the manic fear
an imperfection
half-drugged
eyes
under
the lids
of
teal shadows
Marilyn’s face
dissolved in ink
used
by men of ambiguous
capacities
hers was no common
emptiness
her self-consciousness
was really her infatuation
with her own fame
in perfect solitude
there is a lasting fire
