Her petulant tone

Far too loud to ignore

Matched the cacophony of sound

As her toys hit the floor

 

Smashing on impact

Into venomous shards

Which she ground into dust

With complete disregard

 

Always centre of stage

By diverting attention

With a shift in the gaze

Came a new reinvention

 

Her stiletto spiked feet

Were a stake through the hearts

Of the men she would lure

From their betrothed, counterparts

 

Never pausing for breath

The next victim in sight

A shiny acquisition

Her actions could blight

 

And as day became night

And as night became day

She’d manipulate her friends

To ensure her own way

 

Then one day, Karma crossed

Her designer styled threshold

And held up a mirror

Revealing what was foretold

 

She screamed at the image

Of the devil’s reflection

Seeing all the deep lines

In her botoxed complexion

 

And so her heart shattered

Into one million pieces

Her soul taking its cue

As her last breath releases
