Bestseller

Outrageously overdressed metaphors
masquerading as surreal images
line blank pages after pages
strutting saucily as if on a catwalk
shining gaudily in profanity
bizzarely thinking it would sanctify
the blasphemous thoughts they were harbouring
believing fervently in this carefully constructed chimera
the urge to be in the limelight so strong
ignoring common sense tapping at the elbow
the fear of simplicity, of ordinary
forcing them to take cover
in the euphemistic poetic devices
clouding the truth in layers of balderdash.
I am a stay at home mother and do freelance writing for school textbooks.
