This is a transformation poem. It shows someone doing their job, and they end up becoming a part of their job. Like a gravedigger becoming the gravestone. This shows a model becoming the dress she is wearing.
Walking the Catwalk
Here I stand
Here I strut
Here I am important
Here I am
On the Catwalk
Here I show
Here I dominate
Here I speak my passion
Here I am
On the Catwalk
Here I am praised
Here I seek attention
Here I am seen
Here I am
On the Catwalk
Here I go into makeup
Here I go into hair
Here my shoulders unfold
Here my back straightens
I feel the expensive silk
Billow around me
I feel the carefully sewn seams
Tying my dress together
I feel the draping of the design
Ready be admired
Step by step
One foot in front
Of the other
Here I strut
Here I twirl
Here my fingers
Of silky fabric
Entice the crowd
Here I am
On the Catwalk
