The Life Of 'A' Celebrity Poem by Philip St. Cyr

The Camera flashes, The late night crashes
dine and dashes… It's VIP
The Paparazzi, The fan frenzy,
The the life on TMZ
Exotic cars and partying with rockstars
The fights at bars and dancing with the stars
The latest fashion,
modeling, acting, the firearm packing
The pills, the alcohol, the drugs,
the non-stop, stop-sign hugs,
the search for love
The highs, the lows, the overdose
The wardrobe malfunction exposed
The frequent damage control
The magazine covers, the lack of clothes
The big success, then epic fail
out of control, nights in jail
the lawyer bail
Intoxicated, hit the guard rail
The intervention, the rehab
The anorexia, the brown paper bag
The sudden collapse
the progress, then the relapse
The fan support, the hate mail
The comeback, the final nail
The shows over, the next in line
for the spotlight, fast-forward/rewind
