Gossip Magazines
When the actresses show everything
from conception to delivery,
with verve and pleasure
to enlighten the ignorant mass,
why the gossip magazines
spread rumours about
the riveting sagas
of love affairs and flirts
of the stars of the tinsel world,
politics and of those in the clutches
of the sages and saints
doing penance in ashrams
to purge the sins of others?
The boys drooled over
the topless photos of the movie stars
a decade back in lonely places.
Now they see, relish
all the performing actresses
in the nets and cell phones and iPods.
No chance for drooling!
