Medusa Sleeping Part 1

said to have a face of true beauty so beautiful too beautiful deserving an Athenian beauty salon curse hours under the sculpting stylist's stolen eye honey when i'm done with you you'll rock their socks off so sitting back closing her beautiful eye lids of her beautiful face she dreamed about how the record holder for launching a thousand ships she'd do one better so imagine how upset her waking was when after hours of snipping here and there her stylist pronounced ta da my dear taking a look in a mirror and noticing she had the same alabaster facial skin of perfection but some thing was different she couldn't quite put a pin point on what "the saga continues" part 2 always seemed to be waking this time in an acoustic cave dwelling where hissing sounds pingponged off the walls time for another hissy fit from her another day of waking having a bad hair day

Brilliant! A delightful rabbit hole. Btw, your mention of an old vinyl prompted me to trip down YouTube, the Divine Madness I raised myself on.

I remember mentioning vinyl but don't know which I was mentioning; but I will look up Divine Madness. (Oh I just wrote your suggested wig poem. Thanks Maureen)
