Erstwhile maiden moping, while still hoping

She had been pining
for a charmer
a knight in shining
gleaming armor

Then caught her on-white-horse-knight
after courtship whirlwind!
A leftist who wasn’t too bright
now she suffers chagrined

By now peeled off her lacquer
an aging woman less busty
He turned out a bald slacker
armor cracked & hinges rusty

Next she hopes to find someone who won’t annoy her
perhaps a well-to-do Republican lawyer?
