GA-GA GOSPEL

"All that is important is finding who you really are
and being that!"So saith Lady Ga-Ga to assembled media
following the footsteps of Lady Madonna's KABBALA experiments
and every Hollywood mystic music maker .Money does not matter to her-
her tour lost millions.She does not care.She cares more for her "Little Monsters"
much like Boy George of Culture Club.She follows in the footsteps of her antecedents-
Marilyn Monroe reading James Joyce,Mae West outwitting everyone.
There is a string of platinum blondes from Jean Harlow right up to Ga=Ga.
All bright,witty,talented individuals
All had to settle for stereotypes -in film,music,fashion,stardom
They became Royalty when there was no glamor otherwise
Queen Bees,Goddesses of Style,Leaders of Lost Young
Generations have lusted after Marilyn/Madonna clones
whose nakedness and bravery adorns desk calenders
making little bleached baby monsters in their wake.
Even stereotypes get monotonous-who remembers Britney Spears?
headlines are random,cruel and constant.One needs scandals to fill the hole in paparazzi lens.
It is endless,shallow and repetitive.Unlike the characters they must play in public,
each actress has depth,dimension and wisdom beyond her years.
Is this why they are adored?Or is fickle fame so fleeting
it must eat up all the young,sell them fashion /adulation
make them consume mirrors(with a short attention span)
so next year we might see NEW BRIGHT BLONDE BOMBSHELL !
(whoever she may call herself @the time?Go Ga-Ga-Go!
