Gold Queen With the Midas Touch

Remember the Glorious Gold Queen with the Midas touch?
We treated her with aloofness, hesitation and such.
I was fearful that she might reach out and give me a slap.
I do not need any stress, disappointment, strife or other crap.

At parties I promptly made an excuse and left when she arrived.
She was possibly fooling others, but I was terrified of her and dived.
Before others caught on to her talents, there were statues everywhere.
Glorious Gold Queen could parade around the hood in her underwear.

Oh my, I sense this Glorious Gold Queen had some serious issues and, perhaps, no one was willing to tell her about them!

There is always one bully everyone fears. She was one of them.
