In the Moonlight

surely someone
sees the reflection
the obvious metaphor
as if it hasn't gone before
trump is the card
that wins the game
how many stars, a billionaire
why are you so comatose
oh......
remote I must remain
the reflection on the pond
in the moonlight
.........
all you will ever be
is what you think
and what you will touch
 but
what you see
is who you are
perhaps.....?

remote I must remain
hussleblood image
reveals the pain

free verse is out the window again
but the reflection on the pond
is as good
as it gets
tells the truth
she died in vain...
