A sordid vintage
Marion returns
from the kitchen
coveting glasses
1962 is passing
Chevy in the rain
I fan the magazine
feign interest in the television
Marion pours deliberately
a sordid vintage
Floyd Patterson
Marilyn was a tragedy
Marion eyes me for reaction
I shift slowly
with suburban malaise
missiles for Cuba
Love, love me do
Marion hums
this year I'll grow my hair
escape the city
Glenn in orbit
from the kitchen
coveting glasses
1962 is passing
Chevy in the rain
I fan the magazine
feign interest in the television
Marion pours deliberately
a sordid vintage
Floyd Patterson
Marilyn was a tragedy
Marion eyes me for reaction
I shift slowly
with suburban malaise
missiles for Cuba
Love, love me do
Marion hums
this year I'll grow my hair
escape the city
Glenn in orbit
