Joker's Folly

Insult the sun and embitter the world as you live for the day's demise. A current of crumpled up silver wishes passed you in the rising tide. Once in your hollow attractive youth the world was fooled for a moment. It dealt you the card of jokerly depth and looked past your stream to a torrent. I want for compassion's attendance to this sad little state of affairs but all I can muster at your lack of lack luster is quietly averting my stares. You pinprick me in the wrong places and voice things which cut to the quick. You'll take on the sun and yet see me and run. I'll never know what makes you tick.
