She enters the room
prancing
like a race horse
shining bright
holding tight
to that smile
she takes a
program and
wanders ahead
into the fray
just another day
at the sea of life
making her bones
with the folks
it’s important
for them to
see you
says the noted
Public Relations
sensation,
let them sniff
the jasmine and
spicy grapefruit
smell clean hair
with blossoms
amidst the green,
act a little bit
like a queen,
only just for
a minute,
don’t go past
your limit,
it’s simply a
tease
a way to
please the
masses and
their pocketbooks
the second looks
from towering
madness are
forgotten….
