BLUEBEARD'S LAST WIFE: COMES THE SISTERS DRAMA, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Next to their death the sisters drama come
Last Line: Who chops their heads off with his ruthless blade.
Subject(s): Theater & Theaters; Stage Life


Next to their death the sisters Drama come,
One eloquent of speech, the other dumb;
One bright with song and dance and colors glad,
The other dark in films fantastic clad.
As each in turn her entertainment shows.
Purple with rage the beard of Bluebeard glows.
He calls the Censor, Bonehead, to his aid,
Who chops their heads off with his ruthless blade.
