Poetry: Vanity

by Jodi Wright

Created on: April 24, 2008

Vanity Unfair

Vanity is everything.
Shopping malls
Bingo halls
Magazines
Social scenes
Big Box stores
Righteous wars
Vanity is everything.

Cars and bars and moisturizer jars
scream desperation
in a shallow nation.
Botox faces
Weight-loss races
Illuminate our insecurities.

Everything is vanity.
Talk show hosts
Web log posts
Oscar night
Divas fight
Huge TVs
Spending sprees
Everything is vanity.

Insanity
