Another expensive class: on fairy tales
Taught me variants: I heard one
today. Of course, driving. (Orphaning self.
Preparing? A possibility.) Anyway,
Beast of Burden is a Mom Favorite,
and it played. Familiarity held
my attention.

Rhett Butler entered the frame.
He could've sung. He couldn't have
been the beast, but he took one.
Busily professing, Mick & Margarets Hood-
Hero Butler blindly assuming the uniform
of beast. Welcoming with diadems & doubt.
The nasty dog. 

...
Bought the drooling nag and rouged velvets.
Planted. Tipped his hat and tipped
the bottle. Cut glass. Wept,
despite Gables hesitation.

Fog & open windows & careening stairs &
dynamite & red taffeta.
