The Awkwardly Charming Female
It was the future
Just a paparazzi afterthought
During a pseudo-event
Ms. Theron spoke about the
Apparently silenced
Ms. Basinger had died
What was then said was funnier
Jennifer, the girl can’t help it!
Jennifer, who tripped on her way to grab the bird
The only sister of two older brothers
Turned me around
Did she change, or did I?
“The time to make up your mind about people — is never.”
One viewing of her star
Hadn’t convinced me

While others turn their lives into performances that they deliver one item at a time
Whether chasing down or landing a kiss
Feels like a sucker punch

A delectable, juicy, surprising performance
…Being human seems enough for now
