Your monarchs wore ruffles.
Everyone bowed, called them kings.
Your rulers wore silk.
No one dared say a thing.
Rosy cheeks for royal portraits.
Gold to showcase wealth.
Powder for pale youth.
Forever porcelain health.
Button your blouse.
Slip your gloves over hands.
Raise your head, honey.
Act like a man.
