Polish diligently "that" faux-celebrity! "Bozo"-the-clown!

 
“Shining”-Glory!?
 
Her faithful-maid polishes the silver-service gleaming
Rail-yard Betty tends a rusted ole-pot water-steaming
 
Five-gowns! Must choose-one! Ah! The most-expensive!
Washed a faded blue-dress bought Good-Will “compensive”
 
His “self”-confessed and -impressed The-“Ambassador” calls
Respectful yard-men painted-white Lady-Betty’s shack-walls
 
“Tea” in the courtyard soon retire to Madame’s locked-door boudoir
 Mason-jar liquid-hot! Used tea-bags placed in fragrant potted-flowers
 
Ah! A supreme-diplomat knows just how “the-art” to “compromise”
Train-yard “Royal”-Betty? Clean-windows! Her exemplar-enterprise!
 
Just another “some”-Lady!? or-other still “Bored! Lonely! Afraid!”
The 10:20 to Atlanta serenades a true Lady-in-Peace! Fully-paid!
 
“I pity the poor-lost & lowly-who shall-never see-life through my perfect-eye!”
The 6:40 to Denver awakens her-prayer: There but for the Grace-of-God go-I!
 
Amen!
