Bubble
Some day the inconsequential may find itself revealed
Dare to walk this plateau of significant insignificance
this mind of indifferent
and apply such a steadfast mitigated circus
in clogged up self-ingratiated opinions
Better that every servant serves their purpose
and reads their script like everyone else
dance to the tune
along with the trained dogs of celluloid wealth
Portrayed in the skin of isolated pomposity
such an Oscar awarded to political sneers
those outbursts of emotional mendacity
a mere expense of fashion is how easy
life appears
Overburdened with concern
realities unreality of box office applause
pandemonium headlines what a celebrity can earn
and every act is acted by pressing play or pause
Just another show motion, another accolade of pretense
another incontinent photo moment to make them all proud
another vacuous misinterpretation
in their own overpaid defense
just street entertainers blowing their bubbles into the crowd
Then skip down the streets yelling bubbles, bubbles should not be allowed
