New Lore
Commercial success
A spirit repressed
Your shell now
The substance below
The glittering fame
Of a deepening shame
Darkened chards at the surface
To glow
Commercial success
Demanding spiritual redress
The light burning down
To its core
With the evening in shade
And emotions now grave
Your soul choking on its
new lore
(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2015)
