You Ain’t No Norma Jean You know you ain’t no Norma Jean Even though you got the smile You sure don’t fit the dream Leaning there upon the tile Life’s stage has been somewhat unkind But still there’s a grace from yesteryear When once you stood with stronger mind Not ensnared by life’s new fear Now you’re just another vessel in the void Sailing streets of shadowed light Wrapped tightly up in celluloid One more goddess of the night The cruisin’ and the bruisin’ They’re lost within the Gunja haze It’s cold, and dank, and lonesome But your eyes they are ablaze They come in clockwork session Always leaving with a yawn Proffering the same old question Those strangers, misinformed No one’s privy to the reasons All part of that master plan But you know throughout the seasons They’re nothing more than grains of sand And so I’ll pass you by again And catch your eyes in broken light Wondering why it is we feel this pain And seek our answers in the night |

 (big hugggsssssss) Yay, you got it back up here right where it belongs so I can re-add my vote! (sigh) I remember her saying sometime, "If I have the 'cheesecake,' my opponents (being male) have the 'beef' and it's all 'bull'!" (giggles in delight) What a ride it would be if there were more rebels like her, no one is her, that's for sure, I love this, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Eddie, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Excellent poem. I'm not sure how many 'young people' will catch the reference to Norma Jean though!! LOL I guess we have to be a certain age to get it.  |

Gee thanks Sharon, I got it! LOL, and I loved it. Sad but true so many of all walks of life are out there seeking in the dark. |
