UPSTAGED

oh, alfred, of the six inch heels
I never cease to see visions of you
when I see a big red head
or stills of Bogie's face -- what a goddess!

wasn't it fun being a mad woman
howling at the dark of the moon
it ended far too soon -- like poor Hawes.

some lines are easier to rehearse
and though I still dream a room green
it'll never be the same -- thank goodness!
