Fanagrams

#1 Eleanor Rigby

A lonely girl lays alone
in an ebony bier.
No George or Ringo
linger near.


#2 Leonard Cohen

A Canada Donne
honed a coded chord
and anchored an ache.


#3 Marilyn Monroe

A neon memory:
Rimmel eye liner,
nylon élan;
a Romeo enroller
(amor on amyl),
lay in a lonely room.
A Miller memoir -
no Norma anymore.


#4 Charles Bukowski

Sick lecher or slick hero?
No rosebush -
he howls, wails, sulks.

Alehouse brawler;
whore abuser who wrecks Buicks.

Raw oral shocker - he swears,
bickers, bawls.

Biro-sucker slouch:
cruel, bleak, crass.

A halo-hacker:
his work kicks ass.
