A round of applause
Standing ovation
Cameras clicking
The crowd cheering for me
Award-winning author, all eyes on me
Fashionably dressed
Drenched in perfume
Flushed with success
Bathed with questions
My sparkling white teeth
A posh accent
Impressive replies
Chubby fingers
Nicely buffed-up nails
Phat handwriting
I’m autographing books
A tap on my shoulders
A socially inappropriate one
An unfriendly atmosphere
I only see wicked step mother
Oh! Another dream
Another dream on my tattered mat
