Isn’t that a perfect mug shot, miss?
In an essentially inconsequential selfies
With loads of exclamations and hashtags
Texted, Tweeted, Tumblr-ed and Trolled on Fakebook
In many facades than one.
From duck face to fish gape
Aren’t we all obsessed with Snapchats and Tiktok?
To make our presence known across the streaming gulf of cyberspace
Hey you! Did you call me a drama queen?
Do you know, how many followers I have in Instagram?
Shusssh, narcissism! I am the queen of rock and roll. Duh.
Mirror, Mirror on the wall.. Am I the fairest of them all?
A mere fiction of an apathetic selfi-esh queen
Pride, Insecurity and jealously in a world obsessed with youth
In an imperfectly perfect society’s look in the book
Thriving to build an image of mediocrity
Hungover to look natural in the right angles and side glances
My muscles ache with arms on the waist and they say
Chin up, tummy in, booty out and ankles wide
Focus my pixels of beauty and shoot,
FYI, you slay me!
Oops, Rebooting.. and the continuous beep noise
*Error 404: your system has selfie virus*
Damn, My Head is killing me!
Wait, Was it the wine from last night?
Blurred images shooks my naked eyes
My Heart keeps ticking for your attention
Are you with me, the Universe?
