FILMING IN COLD BLOOD
An opening shot—
“Welcome to Emporia”
There on Sixth Avenue West
Dick and me driving—
Through Emporia, Kansas
Past the looming Plumb Mansion
Past Carnegie Library—
And the Civic Auditorium
Then a right on Commercial
Driving north to campus—
Down a couple of blocks
To Haynes Hardware Store
HAYNES HARDWARE STORE
Some rope and tape—
To tie the Clutter Family up
Nice and real tight, honey
We’ll skip the fucking—
Catholic nun’s black nylons
For masks, says Dick
It’ll be dark by then—
There in Holcomb, Kansas
At the rich Clutter Joint
It’s a long drive, honey—
But this old Chevy will
Get us there that’s for sure
