Walk of Shame

Starlets tender their heralded names Just another pretty face; another superficial dame Brokered pawns in tawdry, transparent game  Bartered tinder is their trite acclaim Stars that twinkled then imploded in combustible flame Fickle lives; filthy lucre their singular aim Pleasing the masses with articial drama their claim to fame Egotistical debutantes who proudly gilded their shame Fealty and familial bonds with pleasure they did cripple, mame Fading memories that inspired more of the same Burnished symbols remembered only by their surname
