The Everchanging Modeling Scene

I was changed the moment that

Reality showed me the rat

Looking for cheese

Doing as it darn well, please

Thought it was time to relax in my lap

Concerned I was in an envious social world trap

Wondering if people thought I was a spoiled brat

Feeling a sudden burn

Flaming the need for tables to be turned

Once again

Having to defend

My cherished looks

Luring superficiality as a hook

To get that engagement ring wish

Using the pole watching performing fish

Staring at me like an entrée see food dish

This was all a long time ago

When I wanted attention from an audience watching a show

Displaying beauty having a glow

But now I ponder here

Vaccinated from the heartbroken emotional tears

Putting up with the rat chugging down many beers

“What do I look like

Get up and take a hike”

On that command

The rat replied to my demand

Scurried back to hide

Not saying goodbye

Only a sigh

Knowing somewhere there was a lie

Now having a reason needing a transition

No longer was I interested in this theatrical staged mission

Singing and dancing

Choreographed prancing

Or sitting on this chair

Entertaining those who care

For a minute as we share

Our time

In being kind

Before going our separate ways

Wondering It would even be remembered in a couple of days

Waving a magical wand

I moved on

Knowing there was adventures out there

Worthy of taking a dare

Enrolled in the higher education school

Seeking knowledge no longer a fool

Armed with maturity and life tools

Heading to class

There I do pass

An honest conversation

Reality I was facing

What did I find

In this talk I did not decline

Another person like me

Challenged in earning a degree

And over a cup of tea

Discussion just to see

My actual professional range

And if things were going to change

Into something new

Realizing all the things I can do

Other than looking good to who
