“If you’re gonna be two-faced at least make one of them pretty.”
-Marilyn Monroe

Underlined references for interpolation, idiosyncratics often indifferent.
The subtle of a softly stylized suffix
Mistaken at musings that modelisque
Moldings the mink of a tiger's toughness
Taken by their bellow of bustiest bewilderedment
Beckoned a billionaire of boldness beyond
Holistic hovering a heretic honning
Howdy, hello, bonjour and ciao
Towards the centricity of crafting a construction
Collapsible cellulitis cited to seize
Once plum, pastels or peony of pilgrimage
Prideful pouting that pulsive ponder peck
Average the actual thoughts that are,
Priceless to the political correct.
You've crossed that mind frame at some point, as well.
Pills for diaphragm are deposited, drafted for the saved.
Head case.
The truth is I cannot sleep
It feels as though I'm in trouble
Trouble that's too deep
So what I do is just keep my repeat
And pretend it's all fine
When this is ALL I have to pass time.
All the colors I see don't match a thing
Mixed and not bright but subdue
No blues, just grey over me
Stuck in the middle not able to move
Try to escape this feeling, my heart beats
Beating and pounds in my chest
It is very overwhelming, too much stress
I want to run and forget the rest
I'm stuck as the lightning strikes
Rain falls and I am still awake
Thunder rolls while I do the same
Toss and turn in this bed
Sadly, this is what goes on in my head.

Enjoy! Made a sale on Redbubble shop and feels like everlasting diamonds, doll! I'm currently having weird tension in jaw and shoulders though..

Andy Warhol's Marilyn Monroe.. ah, lavish.
“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.” ― Marilyn Monroe
"Home is where you come when you run out of places."
Clash by Night (1952) dir. Fritz Lang
One day when we were relaxing on the beach between photo sessions, I decided to capture some new expressions I had glimpsed on Marilyn’s face. Getting her in close-up, I asked her to react instinctively, without giving herself time to think, to the words happiness, surprise, reflection, doubt, peace of mind, sadness, self-torment…and death.
When I said ‘death’ she took hold of the folded dark-cloth and covered her head with it. Death to her was blackness, nothingness. I tried to coax another reaction from her. Death might be a beginning, the hope of an everlasting light. She shook her head: ‘That’s what death is for me.’
She turned towards me, her face set and despairing, eyes dulled, her mouth suddenly bereft of color. To her, death was ‘the end of everything.’
- Andre de Dienes, Marilyn Mon Amour
