Prototype

by HOLLYWOODxBANGBANG   Jun 14, 2007


She stands on the runway; wearing barely nothing at all,
There's awes from the audience; boys and their cat calls,
And bones are sticking out from her figure; she's so thin,
Her eyes are blood shot red and her breath smells like gin.

Blond hair and eyes of green; a super model for the young,
But all her petty little words are slurring off of her tongue,
She stumbles in her black stilettos; looking like a fool,
And the image that the media makes of her can be so cruel.

Her face is pinned inside fashion magazines; on walls,
The image of her - inside your mind, Hollywood installs,
And she's the new prototype for all the twelve year old's,
As they sit at home wishing on the stars to be a centerfold.

Her walk of fame is almost over; she'll pass out backstage,
Selling her pin thin frame for hundreds over minimum wage,
So she stands on the runway; wearing barely nothing at all,
But it looks to me like Ms. Richie has finally taken the fall.

A side note: I love Nicole Richie, I just think she's gone a bit too far.

    That was unexpected, but you did a great job with your poem. Out of all of the ones I've read today, this one is my favorite.

    "So she stands on the runway; wearing barely nothing at all,

    I must admit its unfair to condemn celebrities when they begin to make mistakes, I think we forget that they are also human. But your right she has gone too far, what they should do is take her out of magazines so young girls wont want to aspire to be like her, until she gets her act together and gets her feet back on the ground. Great poem though glad you could express this.

    Take Care.
