(August, 2005)

Betty ties the apron round her waist
ties it tight so it accentuates
her perfect pin-up figure

she sets the china on the table
it is chipped and she's unable
to hide the tiny flaws

so she touches up her lipstick
puts away the bisquick
and then pours herself a dirty martini

and toasts her death
