amelia earhart vs. the dancing bear

Singer:handsome family, the

amelia

amelia earhart

after her plane was torn apart and bursting through the trees

she remembered picking lemons with william randolph hearst and how a spinning plane propeller turned liquid in the sun

and as the cockpit burned

her hair filled with sparks

but when the glass exploded in

everything went dark. she remembered sipping consomme' with william howard taft and a boy with perfect skin who smelled like mustard gas

and as the cockpit burned

she couldn't help but smile

recalling a dancing bear she'd seen as a child.
