Death of a Princess
Vultures swooped at fast
evading carrion;
Vespa hornet squadron buzzed;
Paparazzi psychology, ruthless
across screaming Macadam black
as the blackest slabs of night.

Sheet lightning born of
flashbulbs popping;
illuminated faces strobed
under toughened glass;
wide eyes, teeth gritted,
urging crazy dizzy velocity;
all the riches and...

With a parting of the crimson seas,
they aren't appeased with just a smile
That girl who walks the star-struck mile
will pay a price that goes unseen

They catch a glimpse and swallow whole. 
Then nonchalantly steal her...

I feel all pasts,
As if they were yesterday,
Decades are but minutes to my minds and feels.
As if I were still two-tens and five,
Rather than three-tens and two.

Flashbulbs pulsed to songs played when youth was not...

With big city views.
Gained a reputation,
On the front page news.

Met a rich young man,
While serving hors d'oeuvres.
She noticed his smile,
He admired her curves.

Badly Spliced
An actor returns to his Beverly Hills mansion –
blows his brains out with a 38 special.

Beach Sunday
Sunday morning tempted me out to the beach
As the sun tumbled down its' white warmth 
Splashing glisters of light on the near flat water;
Paparazzi pools of a million flashbulbs.

The morning of the last day of...
