Celebrity Hack Poem by Martin O'Neill

Celebrity Hack

Rating: 4.0


Vitriolic rifts and schisms
Dress them up as witticisms
Underhanded criticisms
Paraded as a pretticism.

"Well, I know that's not a REAL word
Daahling, but this is showbiz! "

Feeding on the gossip hunger,
Revelling as rumour-monger
Make the story linger longer
Rub your hands and count the Wonga

" Money is SUCH a dirty word
Daahling, but this is showbiz! "

Spread the word on Who is Trending
Fragile egos all need mending
Vacuous opinions vending
Soundbites from your contacts sending

'Celebrity Hack is a HATEFUL term
Daahling! But, this IS showbiz! '

This is great. You watch some tv shows and you cringe and cannot hide. Nailed it here.

Ha, I often wonder what it would be like to inhabit 'that' world. But I am all too happy to be on the outside of that. You've captured it well, in more than one aspect.
