A Repost What Title Suit

For your knowledge everyone hail and praise For your charisma everyone stand and clap And within you joy sways with no pause: And you feel, you the celebrity worth the clap It is in false they praise not in truth Though their eyes bath in awe and admiration For to them, you are the paramount In their mind, the wish to be in the position Aren't we all want to be the great? A word from you is the supreme Even when you are not on the stand From you, go is go and come is come Sit is sit and stand is stand Failure to obey is a crime It is not in love but in lust their obedience From you, people's expectation is humble You are the talk of the time in your existence When you're defunct someone else we shall prattle Let history talks of you with grace

"When you are defunct, someone else we shall prattle" This line is so true. Man is so fickle, when one goes another to praise will always take the place Astute words Afolabi, I like your poem...Maria.
