What The Scream Saw
What “The Scream” Saw
 
 Orange and yellow invading the sky 
 So bright it takes your breath away
 Chilling evening breeze, brushing under the bridge
 A few miles from a California Bungalow 
 
 Two men dressed in all black 
 Entering the bedroom window 
 Of Marilyn Monroe 
 Violence and confusion 
 Pills flying 
 Lace ripping
 Marilyn is dead 
 
 500 miles away John F Kennedy sits back in relief 
 His reputation is saved
 Jackie lowers her newspaper
 And smirks
 
 88 yards away Lee Harvey Oswald setting up
 For the big day 
 Loading bullets 
 Waiting for the signaling black umbrella
 
 Cars enter under the bridge 
 One containing Princess Diana
 Being bumped again and again 
 Flashing lights
 The driver becomes nervous
 2 black cards intersect her car
 Princess Diana’s car flipped
 Crashing into the median 
 
 Two men sitting in an office
 Sipping hour old coffee
 Clicking the mouse 
 Photoshop fills the screen
 Pictures of a man in a uniform
 On the moon 
 “This will due”
 Printed out 
 Mailed to CNN
 
 Thick stokes of oranges and red 
 Disperse on the canvas
 Colors to vibrant
  It takes your breath away
 1893: Edvard Munch 
 The Scream was created
 A picture knows 1000 stories
 Right?
