    This is my first draft of this poem, I’m not completely happy with some of the verses yet…

    THE LAY OF LADY GAGA

    On the stage the Lady stands
    On ever-changing shifting sands
    To sing, to dance, to entertain
    To perform for her fans again

    Poker Face and Bad Romance
    Paparazzi and Just Dance
    Her Telephone it rings so loud
    Heard above the roaring crowd

    Money Honey and The Fame
    It’s the Monster Ball again
    Teeth and Monsters here do dwell
    She Dances in the Dark so well

    I’m So Happy I Could Die
    Her live singing is no lie
    Piano goddess, keytar queen
    The best that there has ever been

    Quirky fashion and high art
    She aims well with her dark art
    To Marry the Night and not the day
    Gaga will never fade away

    She loves her fans the most you see
    She bleeds for us regularly
    And so we love her in return
    She will never crash and burn

    Music is the Lady’s life
    No ignorance, no fear, no strife
    She preaches love, acceptance too
    Because her religion’s you

    All of us should understand
    The simple message close at hand
    Be yourself and never stray
    Because we were all born this way

    I thought there might be a section for fan art but as there wasn’t I created this topic in General Discussion…

    I’ve decided to rename the poem THIS MONSTER’S BALL as I wasn’t totally happy with The Lay of Lady Gaga ;o)

    I love it! Thanks for posting! I do intend to create a fan art section sometime in the next month or so. As soon as you feel like your poem is finished, let me know and I’ll publish it in the articles section! <3

    Saetana, thank you so much for sharing, this is just a wonderful poem and really captures all that Gaga means to us, her performance style, her love of music, the LMS and social justice and equality. Please post more of your poems! That’s exciting Scott that you’ll publish Saetana’s finished poem in the articles, section, can’t wait.

    Thanks everyone, I’ll tidy it up by the end of the week as I realised I’ve rhymed art with art, lol, and I’m not happy with the 6th verse yet ;o)

    Okay, here is the final(ish) version, I changed the name, rewrote the 6th verse and made a couple of minor alterations. I have to leave it alone now or I’ll end up constantly rewriting and spoiling the good bits, lol, I’m never completely satisfied. I put it in for the birthday project via Propagaga as well. Sorry for the lack of posting this week but I still have an infection in one eye – better than two at least, hopefully the other will clear up shortly.

    LADY GAGA

    On the stage the Lady stands
    On ever-changing shifting sands
    To sing, to dance, to entertain
    To perform for her fans again

    Poker Face and Bad Romance
    Paparazzi and Just Dance
    Her Telephone it rings so loud
    Heard above the roaring crowd

    Money Honey and The Fame
    It’s the Monster Ball again
    Teeth and Monsters here do dwell
    She Dances in the Dark so well

    I’m So Happy I Could Die
    Her live singing is no lie
    Piano goddess, keytar queen
    The best that I have ever seen

    Quirky fashion and high art
    She aims well with her thrown dart
    Marry the Night and not the day
    So Heavy Metal Lovers say

    She loves her fans so much you see
    So warm and kind to you and me
    And so we love her in return
    She will never crash and burn

    Music is the Lady’s life
    No ignorance, no fear, no strife
    She preaches love, acceptance too
    Because her religion’s you

    All of us should understand
    The simple message close at hand
    Be yourself and never stray
    Because we were all born this way
