Goldie

The Never-Ending Goldie

 

Goldie Locks lived in a trailer

She played doodle bugs in the dirt

She made mud houses for frogs with her foot

 

Things seem big when you are small

She likes small, cozy places

She remembers being so small her mother bathed her in the sink

 

Goldie Locks was quite precocious from the get go

At “The Little Red Schoolhouse” she punched a boy in the nose

She daydreamed in school

As she got older

She dreamed of escape

Escape from the South and that place

Called Minden, where people had nothing better to do

Than gossip

 

Eventually she did escape and her odyssey began

Just follow the Yellow brick road . . .

Discothèques, Dancing, Drugs

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds

Wandering aimlessly

A knight appears, and says,

“California is the place you aughta be”

 

Now Goldie goes to school

The Theater Darling (Puff, puff)

Acting, Singing and Dancing

This must be Emerald City U

Golddigers, Munchkins & Mimes

Oh My!

But wait . . . There’s More!

“This is Orange County” says Goldie

“Where is Hollywood?”

 

The Hills are alive~

“There is that magical sign.”

The big, bad wolf says,

“So you wanna be in pictures”

As he twirls his sinister mustache

“Yes please” says Goldie

“Tell me I am the Girl!”

“Sure . . .”

Slick cons, dumb girls
