narrative verse

Posers and a poseur
 
The “ Princess” came from peasant stock
Which some would find to be a shock.
Her title was a fantasy
 which was accepted readily.
 
By those who fawn on Royalty
The cream of high society,
 who swallowed her flamboyant lies.
The may be rich but they’re not wise.
 
 Her bold charade she could achieve
because they wanted to believe
They could hobnob with Royalty.
Just fools behaving foolishly
 
The took her as their protégée.
 Which suited her admirably,
she took society by storm.
 A rebel who would not conform.
 
I won’t reveal the lady’s name.
She is a winner in life’s game.
Her secrets known to just a few
They will not tell, they dare not do.
 
It would reveal stupidity
they do not want the world to see.
 Which goes to show that you can do
almost anything you dare to.
 
The “Princess “wins the posers lose
and all because they do not choose.
To let the world know honestly
that they were fooled so easily.
