Black Dahlia

Before there was Elizabeth Short there was Marion Parker, who had her eyes wired wide.
Wired wide but not wired, for Marion Parker was dead.
Kidnapped and dead, Marion Parker was thrown out of a car, but the car was not parked, not parked for Marion Parker.

Her father paid.
Her father paid twice, because Marion Parker was dead.
And wrapped up tight.
With eyes wired wide, so she would appear alive.
She was not alive.

Marion Parker was snatched from her school, was snatched willingly enough, with a bundle of lies and a car.
(At this point, the car was parked, indeed.)
And Marion Parker went and her twin Marjorie stayed and Marion went and found out the identity of her kidnapper.

That's why she died, she did.
If Marion had been ignorant, she needn't have died.
Ignorance is bliss, bliss, bliss.

But poor Marion opened her eyes and found them open for a deathtime.
