saporous tangy smokey honeyed buttery saftig
acerbic delicate ginger fizzy herb seasoned
this tangy delicate saftig* peach
dewy as a bunch of fresh herbs
with her smokey buttery honeyed voice
this seasoned actress
pouting piquant ginger fizz kisses
sizzling and sexy performer
became
the butt of acerbic commentary
the object of popular derision
vilified by nasty bitter people
jealous of her saporous vitality
few knew behind the facade
lay an intelligent interesting woman
i don't think she knew either
saftig* juicy
This is wonderful I have always loved Marilyn, I have read many bios on her!

Eye opening contrast. Thank you for sharing this.

ReplyDeleteWonderful to see her written like this -- and I think you have got it right, she was much more intelligent than either she or the public knew. This seems so true of many artists, performers, dreamers. Thanks for sharing.
