Life of the Famous

What if I became Famous?
What would I do with my time?
How would I do it?

What will I have to compromise
to get my dream come true?
Would I have to change my hair color?
Will I wear outrageous clothes?

Who would I miss at home?
Would my best friend be my manager
or would it be someone I don't even know?
Would I need a manager?

I'd have a bouncer who would
get me anything I wanted.
Groupies who would worship me
like I was Gene Simmons.

Money would just keep coming,
even for crappy commercials
about products that no one
will ever use in real life.

I'd have a mansion where I'd
keep my little doggies
when they wouldn't be traveling
in my purse, getting a free ride.

Endless spa treatments,
unlimited drugs that are
charged per autograph.

The money I saved would
pay for rehab and
I'd own the tabloid front page.
Is this picture of me too subtle?

Yeah, being Famous, it's fun,
until you fizzle out
and now you're nostalgic CDs
in the bargain bin.

Yeah, I want to become a
Famous singer, adored by all
who hear me for the first time,
then replaced by the next good sound.

"Rockstar" by Nickelback was my imspiration for this poem. I tried very hard not to use any phrases they used. Hope you like it!

    it was a good poem then words fit well together and the questions make people think what if they became famous they would ask the exact same questions...
    well done

    This poem was entertaining but i really wanted something about more important issues, questions that make your brow furrow and keep you up all night.
    so i dont think this is the right poem.
    But thanks for entering.
