Kitschy

Knowingly overdone
                  kind of low brow drama.
         Kooky, loud and splashy
keen on melodrama.
         Kinky and weird, it can
                  knit one's emotions in
knots, with its garish ways.

Cool poem, Laura. But it reads like a K Pleiades, not a J Pleiades. Probably just a typo. The poem definitely has a kitschy catch to it's rhyme meter. A very fun offering, ty for sharing. Love and peace always.
