Glass House
Glass House
I see you
And I see me
Reflected in your walls
Impressed I am
But cautious
When the towering inferno falls
For humans can be fickle
And the height can make you dizzy
Your eyebrows can be singed
Your brain sent in a tizzy
When the heat of fame and fortune
Elevates your status higher
Than humility of floor thirteen
Where the smoke turns into fire
People in glass houses
Should be careful what they throw
Reflect the sky. Stay grounded.
Be the person in the know.
