Alacrity

Alacrity

Choose a topic to jot down
Oh it is a cunning plan
Her smile is full of lies
Manipulations and desperation
Mask a jealous rage
She knows the game all too well
“Off with your head! You don’t fit the bill!”
She grits her teeth 
and smiles sugar and spice
Her real game is to marginalise

The rule of life applies 
To the rule of art
Diversity and spice
Win the crowds thrice
The real artists analyse, inspire
And deconstruct
But don’t judge.
Alacrity wins the crowds
In the meantime.
