The New Monarchy
Kim Kardashian spotted in a royal blue gown
Royalty these days has no crown.
Demount your high horse. Step down.
You’ve taught us all the art of mirror reflect.
Does that mean I am now your loyal subject?
Your snapchat crown is pretty though.
However, the term is next in line, not ya main hoe.
Royals don’t swear Kris. Royals aren’t mean.
Reluctant to try the shade “peasant green”.
In the good days, we would read real maps.
Contours now make us pretty. Asap.
The dress is beautiful but I cannot agree
That the shade of blue makes you monarchy.
