Extinguished Star

A dedication to Marilyn Monroe and her tragic legacy.

"Extinguished Star"

Soft, ashen blonde beauty
Translucent blue eyes closed in death
The small cold white hand clutches desperately
A telephone, a connection to the outside world
Someone please save me
Something has gone horribly wrong

Playboy's First Playmate
America's Blonde Sex Goddess
37-28-36
Numbers that are still infamous
Inflamer of the heart's of men
The All American woman

No hot white lights
No screaming devoted fans
Empty bottles, no drinking glass and a locked door
Suicide attempt like before?
Or government murder conspiracy
That prematurely ended the life of Norma Jean
