The rich the fake the bored

Some of them 
coordinate 
Some of them 
expressive 
Look at mall the lovely people 
Shopping out so dressive
Like a storm 
of boots n hankies 
Bodies drip regalia 
Brighter than 
the queen of June
bathing up to the neck 
in incinerated dahlias

Punks n peacocks 
mods n classies 
bet their haircuts do the talking
Eyebrow tender film stars
live forever mirrored
in undressing rooms
these fruits of the family heirloom
are made for gawking
in veridesent cocoons 
with beatific smiles
bio-locating across the aisles
skin to skin sheen
with a blue nun shimmer
welcome to paradise
we the perfume
shall gather at the beach
of the consumer river
where suffering desists
we shall be lovers forever
under a gentle moon
breath mists
the window display of eternity
all inhale the windolene wonder
Except the rich 
the fake 
and the beautiful 
Who shop n shop n shop n pop
and pay top price
the cream faced laughing loons
floating like goldfish in paradise
all under a silvery moon
