Posers Pay

tetrameter sonnet

 

Posers Pay.

 

They say the camera never lies.

But you may find to your surprise,

 not only that they can but do.

Glamour shots are seldom true.

They have been air brushed probably

 to change the image that you see

 and alter the reality

to cater to sheer vanity.

If you’re prepared to pay his fee.

I’m sure the snapper will agree

To airbrush out each small defect

Which makes you look less than perfect.

Of course the camera does not lie

it just fulfils your fantasy.
