Parade Of Ballyhoo

Lore of second chances,
it will be different;
Mouth filled with broken words
not repaired repeated;
You wound with gentle swords;

Lore of second chances,
new day new beginning;
Then it’s just deja vu;
Megalomaniac
parading ballyhoo;

Lore of second chances,
don’t buy into banter;
Focusing on action 
reveals what’s underneath
whitewashed with attraction.
