why didn't you do it?
you and your revolutionary ideas;
the very heart of the parade
pulsing
to a melody everyone was all too
enveloped in familiarity with -
bathe in the spotlights of adoration,
the currents stroking your ego.
they glorify you
drown out my voice raised to an octave.
thousand questions,
no answers -
what now?
struggling to keep your monuments up
you didn't listen, you never do.
the silence, it's unusual
deafening -
speak!
answer!
don't you dare say time ran out.
your smile is a frail tremor of fear
isn't this what you wanted?
dove and deer can hear your screams -
no initiative
too soon
stop
it's too much
move your hands faster
. . .
i can't.
why not?
i thought it was you
you whose ears they smothered in applause
clapping, clapping, clapping
for you.
displaying rose girls in glass vases -
you, with a mind greater than einstein
questioning the impossible.
it's blinding, you say
as you lay in the shade of a hundred trees
the sunlight seeping in from beyond walls of green
dark. cool.
and i on the hard concrete -
white. hot.
just like your pristine image.
you wouldn't even be here
without me.
. . .
they love you.
