The School of Celluloid Charm

The ambush hits mid-paper
You’ve been told officially
these are -

THE FACES OF SA

with their hot looks of ‘97
the peacocks preen prettily,
pouting and posing

look, look, look
at me   at me

ooh street cred and cool
   sell that image baby
in your hip threads
by hyped-up designers
you’ve got what it takes

the world of modelling
pays better than conscience
is more rewarding than honesty

look, look, look
at me
smile for the camera
that's it, smouldering...
yessss!

an expensive veneer can be yours
   and a fear of depth
just don’t analyse the fashion revolution

what comes around
   comes around
      comes around
now, its in, or is it out?

we’ve got
Tim, Troy, Trent
Ben, Brian, Bart
looking rather smart
in the new season’s colours

look   look   look
at me

you're looking at equal oppurtunity of vanity
oozing a carefully constructed masculinity

we have seen the future
and its hip and hunky

thankfully,
I can turn the page.
