Sense Sonnet - Acher

 Norma's Comeback

Norma Desmond, silent film star,

Takes in a down on his luck Joe.

Norma believes that the two are

Destined to make her comeback go,

As teenage temptress, Salome,

Though Norma's too old for this role,

Joe sees a chance for pay to stay,

Help Norma with her silly goal.

But over time, Joes gets upset,

Tells Norma he is leaving her.

Mad, Norma shoots her ingrate pet.

Cops come and cameras occur.

"As if we never said goodbye,"

Norma's back in the public eye.
