Celebritisation

The beauty queen-
she married a tree.
It's regressive, but freaky!

That hunk
in a yellow trunk
is sleeping around
I smell a scandal!

Here's what I really love to read,
the thing that makes for headlines-
Reality TV show wannabe,
the pin-up boy's infidelity,
the item girl's fashionable tights,
Married star's bedroom fights,
A gay director's sleeping partners
A fatso actress's slimming orders,
A smoking star's self-glorification,
An infidel socialite's clarification.

I, the voyeur,
the lover
of the rich and famous.
I'm obsessed
with aspiration;
giving into
celebritisation.
