The Queen of Inertia
I’m the Queen of Inertia
So please kiss my ring,
Although it’s not technically
Royal-type bling.
Or else you might curtsey
To show me respect
For no one’s surpassed me,
The last time I checked.
The art on my walls hasn’t
Changed now for years;
The furniture’s old,
Which is how it appears.
My wardrobe’s the same
(With a few slight additions).
I’m not too complacent
With change or transitions.
My hairstyle’s been with me
For quite a long time
And lots of my poems
Share a similar rhyme.
Don’t try to usurp
My familiar routine.
When it comes to inertia,
Man, I am the Queen!
