Marc O'Brien Poet Rhyme

A Poetic Courting Appearance

Sitting in a car 
Coming from the bar 
After studying the law 
While waiting for an agent’s call 
Star she was 
Getting a little buzz 
Enough to brag 
About the information reported in the modeling rags 
Romantic comedy made her name 
Brought a nice fortune along with fame 
Playing the guy’s game 
Acting like last century’s dame 
With finances in the bank 
Her legal academic credits earned noted as top rank
Being very smart 
Dressing for each part 
Looking cute 
In that runway business attire suit 
Carrying the fashionable case 
Protecting an image that says “the legal test you will ace” 
Going into her rented one bedroom 
There is good news feeling that loomed 
A red light blinked 
Making her stop and think 
Pressed the button and a small recorder rewound 
There was a message to be found 
“You passed the bar on Success Street
Isn’t that sweet?” 
Going over to the cabinet she took a shot 
Still looking hot 
Raising a toast
No more need to talk to the comedic host 
“I do declare 
A profession where 
The truth will be told 
From me a beauty that is bold 
Guiding a light 
To those restless and young needing a fight” 
Taking a swift swig 
Removing the puffy powder wig 
What was there? 
An honest color hair 
“See you in court 
I am still powerful as I was wearing those luring shorts”
