AMERICAN ICONS

AMERICAN ICONS

One is known for her hemlines
Just so right
The other for hemlines
Accompanied by no tights.
Young ladies with poise
Will always make the right noise
But girls from orphanages will marry young, dreaming
Of what their life might become.
Life’s rich tapestry was woven into a pink chanel suit
Camelot’s Princess was american grace.

While some like it hot
Di Maggio did not
Another heartache for sugar cane.
Vanity Fair with it’s gossip and flair adored both ladies to death.
Socialite gatherings had reached a peak with
stories abounding of a blonde in the President’s sheets.
Jackie ever stoic
Turned the other cheek.

As time goes by
Loyalty and lies are of really no surprise
For each leading lady a private sigh.
Mr. Miller privately laughed at the blonde bride by his side.
Whilst Jackie cradled her husbands bloody head
She knew then Camelot was officially dead.
Just like the blonde in her LA home
Who died as she was always alone.
