All American Actress

All American Actress

A Poem by .

This is more of a trial than you might think
(The mother in law comes to the salon first)
The area closest to the church
can be dangerous for anyone.
It happened year after year
Sort of like on purpose
The two dead dogs 
In the street outside my window
Were a strange story
That only the flowers knew

Wait a second...
He rarely got drunk
Well,
Put it this way:

Swedish, squarish, and strong
He was fascinated with security
A gross sort of person
To be so secure and learn so little
His comfort was thick, and sickening

Outside my window also lay
An all american actress
Her rules had been simple
Four more killings,
Two more shows,
Then suicide by dynamite.
So I guess I should say
Outside my window lay half
Of an all american actress

Ponzio stood looking at the water
He had locked the door
But he knew someone had been in his apartment
 he could still feel them creeping
Like nightmares into his house of mirrors
Clinging to the inside of his eye lids 
In frames of horror.
He broke all the china
But He couldn't escape them

I'll take the two dead dogs
And all american actress any day
(Or half)
Nightmares seem much worse 
Especially ponzio's 

"You haven't talked to him I suppose?"
No he's not well enough to talk.
"Well anyways, the salendar girl accepted the job."
She's expensive.
"Really... How do you know?"

For your sake I'll tone it down
She was the all American actress's best friend
and boy,
She was dynamite .
