Too sad for a mere Limerick - so you get a eight line versicle.
The Faerie Queen appears on stage With wand and sequins – and a page! Her elbows creak, her knees both ache Hair and bosom, both are fake. People leave when curtain falls; Just empty wrappers in the stalls. With make up off and dressed in beige, Exeunt: A Woman of - “a Certain Age.”
