Hollywood
A rich-only career fortress
A man’s world, where others protest to impress
Where you seek any progress
By being a self-starved actress
Where the normalcy of serial monogamy
Ignores the tenets of loyalty and family
Profanity has eloquence
Obscenity is glamourous
An industry dressed up in robes of hypocrisy
So avaricious but with tears over piracy
Diversity is merely for the stage
Equal opportunity is caged
Their life has a prescript
To live for a price tag
Their feelings are not distinct
But they live so far away from us
In world of sex and looks, always lusting for extolment
