DAWNA EPIC
The gorgeous, witty and young
prepster progeny of
Hollywood Elite
From the most senior scriptwriter
To the lowest stoop prop-master
Kidnap the prodigal kids from
a long scheduled reunion
me and the TG
cousin I haven’t seen in years
imprisoned in a black
lodge light opera with
a touch of the clueless
paradigm whose theme is
all of our political and personal insecurity
& they’re mean & they
mean us
know harm we know
The effects are wonderful
we laughed, almost died
almost laid & wondered why
they don’t make themselves known
more often in the everyday
better world
naturally passed on copyrights
in our name delivered
safely to the front yard
where they/we were the
hole time
But the script was buried amongst a dump truck load of
rejected submissions
& when we finally found it
it was still their names
we didn’t know there
