the glitz and the glamour is doing just fine.
the worries of privacy echo throughout the walls,
hollywood’s greatest stars murmur and wail,
but the mystique still lives.
the mysterious personal lives and affairs
of those we’ll never know
the truth of the matter, is hollywood’s soul
was never about the glamour,
never about the glitz.
it was merely a ploy to trick the world
into believing that magic exists.
but the dust which they use
does not come from fairies
and it cannot make you fly.
its only true power is addiction and fear,
and all it can do is kill you.
but for now, as it seems,
the magic is alive and well in hollywood.
