Sense Sonnet - Chiller

Did You See That?

At the time the movie was seen,
Psycho was a first of its time.
Alfred Hitchcock brought to the big screen
New ways to look at a grisly crime.
The bathroom was a focal set,
Where Norman Bates made the blood flow
Down the drain in black and white wet,
As music marked each stabbing blow.
But, eyebrows did not raise so much
About the carnage in the tub;
It was the filming of the touch
Of something else that caused the rub.

Breaking the taboo that cheeks blushed,
The film first showed a toilet flushed.
