Out Cycled

 

The Supreme Diva

clad in the finest arrogance

Struts down the red carpet

fashionably late as always

Lady Liberty

always gets what she wants

and wants what she gets

Jewelry adorned and worshiped
by a shallow society
which values flash over substance

Now a comically hollow

flash figurine is she

Peering down smugly

from atop her plastic Christmas tree

The gravity of history

is her unseen enemy

Her star time on top is waning

And in her heart she knows it
