Days of future remembrance
Dreams beyond my stretch
Of a life no one really inhabits
Something else to kvetch
—
Time is just a hypnotist’s bobble
Cannot parse the fake from real
So many characters, all this fantasy
Stay around for the reveal
—
Beautiful is my favorite color
No majesty in fawning majestic
The key light tells no lies
Truthfully just agrestic
—
Made-up words await their meaning
But a finger stick unveils a truth
While pretense has a bigger fan club
Now everyone must act a sleuth
—
Power makes fools of pretenders
Wishing for the Moon is misguided
Too big for one’s breast pocket
Making one very lopsided
—
Nobility is only part of a reign
Aspire past the skyline
Desire sharing your soul
Strive to be, genuine
