Lady Shutterbug had doubt
Spent hours that coulda been ‘bout
an environ pro-activist devout
Spotting celebrities, scoping it out
Not keeping abreast trendy starlets
Kylie, Mavee, Cardi B, or Scarlet
Yet little does she regret,
out of the loop during covid19
Paparazzi never meant anything
Albeit a lucrative livelihood and scene
Standing by on Friday night
Perchance a celebrity sight
Star gazing she’d eagerly mull over
Adeptly cunning at recognition,
Spotting celebs with innate intuition
Beverly Hills
Walk of Fame premier thrills
N’er will she stalk, push, shove, or duck
Pose, get the snapshot with some luck
Easily star-struck a fan of many
She never imagined chasing celebs aplenty
Or miss the money shot!
Warranting ‘tis’nt for her
In this “Designer Dupe” culture
Bougi's swarm like vultures
How would she know if a star strutted by
“Popface” got it covered AI
A new project
Snap
Click, click, click
flashes go off
Shutter speeds
all she needs
Plastic perfection abounds
follow ‘em around?
Lady Shutterbug won’t chase down
Stands by her hometown
Seeks adventure without fear
Grins from ear to ear
Cozy in her SUV
Yeah, lowkey
Adeptly cunning at recognition
Spots them with her intuition
Pop up prominent restaurant
Lavish L.A. luxurious Rennaissant
Reborn rich ‘lish fancy
Spacious buoyancy
Exotic cocktail lounge, sunken gardenet, check
Open patio lit at sunset, check
Mediterranean & Steak buffet, check
Valet parking, check, check, check
All the markings of a high-end hot-spot
Edgy crowd smoking pot
Plastic perfection abounds
A bourgeois turnaround
What Lady Shutterbug mistook for stars
were look-a-likes inside high-end bars
Designer imitations, clothes, shoes, bags and cosmetics
As cheaper alternative tricks
All resembling famous celebs,
the atmosphere’s feelin good
A lil tipsy in the hood
All engaging in vocal and visual vibrancy
showing off youthful dynamisim, unencumbered joy
And so Lady Shutterbug overtly observes
It’s what she prefers
She’s reassured with or without
a genuine star to capture, it’s time out
A musing gaze, a sweet sigh
Click, click, click, flash goes off
She remains stealthily nigh
