She Said “I’m Leaving You!” But As For Me I’m Happy As Can Be! Women Issues Speaker

I was at the hair stylist's the other day with time to kill and gossip magazines in my lap.

I got to wondering what it's like for the celebrities storied in, and gracing the covers of, these magazines to have no privacy; to be the subject of rumors and innuendo, well wishes and chastisement, head-shaking and vicarious living.

The rich and famous live in a fish bowl with little privacy, except when nestled in their private compounds. Are the glamour, toys, perks and connections that wealth and stardom provide, enough. A poem was born. Life in a Fish Bowl -

The Downside of Stardom What is it like to live life in a fish bowl?

These celebs pay a price for fame Red carpet, paparazzi, for every new role Us, People,

The Soup; it's part of the game

There's money and houses and Euro-vacances A home in L. A. and the South of France

They grace the covers of magazines Some real dishing plus some faux scenesBeing fan-rushed at award shows Being crushed by camera men One gets too close, gets a broken nose Oh, the lives of Madonna and Sean Penn And reality TV has introduced the Kardashians Which sounds like the Star Trek 'Cardassians' We follow them; who they're with; where they go And tune in on-demand for a rerun of the showAnd who's having babies and what number affair This is celebrity; it brings the good and the bad A media zoo, be forewarned, be ready, be aware

The money doesn't keep some from going mad Open the gates, close the gates, safely at home Private time now, stay put, don't roam Someone's out there with a telephoto lens Get off it guys, we're allowed to be with friendsOh the price of fame Yes, some people are lame But the public is titillated by those Who make the music, the movies, the TV shows Celebrity doesn't give you freedom to be dumb And expect that your groupies stick around Yet, there's some license to be divergent from

The public persona that you expound And too, the public supports

The guys and gals in sports We watch them raptly on field or course And it hurts us when a spouse files for divorce And the impetus to get prescriptions Or drink to excess and go to rehab Or losing weight or other predilections Oh, what temptations for the fabTake the time to look up this writer who can and will make a difference with his thoughts on life in the world as we know it.
