Diana Prince as child star (from a fortune cookie) - Madison Archard

​Diana Prince as child star // I gild my shackles // superheroes arrive
 
the daily planet impersonates me
nightly. they’ve gotten lazy
and no more call me by my name.
 
wonder woman has a lipstick craze!
things are wild here in Hollywood hills
our lips are punky rooster killers
and we all wear black!
 
they call me kid nipple ring
and I splash out on cover, that
full screen thing they like.
holy smokes, gals, I leave
my snatch all over the place
I let it bleed, you know, I keep
what flies I catch.
 
wonder girl and both her perfect boots or
I buy my meals off flesh and
six lotto numbers! so can you!
 
it’s all scratch and sniff, I think,
and I’ve left my lasso far
from where I sleep.
 
wonder woman finds her mother,
weeping; metropolis, the city, lies
in wait, it watches.
