Author Pyrite

A million battered steps.
Smiles rimmed with fire and pyrite.
Ninety-proof clarity in the foothills of blissfulness.
Clouded mountains topped with defeats.
It's all in the script, and the author is me.

Nearing the finish, and there it sits. 
The greatest wall- icy indifference.
What lies on the other side of this life? 
That same pyrite and fiery sea.
It's all in the script, and the author is me.

"...nearing the end there sits the greatest wall of indifference...", reminds one of an old tv show 'the beverly hillbillies'...money is just fools gold
