Contagious Statesman

Too young to leap 
Too old to dream 
He bears nobody to ponder 
But musters a blissful insight 
A freelance in a broad daylight 
Though, faceless when Emerged 
Chanting hilariously at people who stared 
Even though time has weared away his pride 
You seldom hear him cry 
With head buried in the sky; he lingers on 
carrying ample of unquestionable cruds 
And when he smiles, he raised his noxious lips slantly 
Revealing the cynically coloured teeth to 
his scurring espionage 
Nevertheless getting glibs from retinue of seeming retards 
All around the suburbs
