The glamour hammer

Your soul’s up for auc­tion, no known reserve,
Blank out the peo­ple, hold your nerve.
Shoot stares, shoot the breeze
laugh along with the lat­est web wheeze.
You never meant it to get to this,
news, cam­eras, com­men­tary axis.
Money.  Your demons want it more than you
sell your­self for your Jimmy Choos
they are more you than you.
Kiss your chil­dren, sell your eggs
make the tabloids, shag the dregs.
It’s not your style but now what’s left
but ham­mer down and the devil’s cleft.
Sell your hole and sell your soul
make your price and pay your toll.
