Sad Boy Narcissus
So once again, you poor thing, did not appear
To help me in the game of fall and rise
It’s chilly to feel lost in mortal fear
My heart is open to your most pernicious lies
Relaxed reptile affects your idle brain
Sad boy Narcissus speaks through you, he smiles
From every mirror, frees of any pain
His lips are moving in the waters of blue skies
You hear him saying never worry, its all nothing
Compared to contemplation skills you own
Sun in the water looks too cold, you’re laughing
While sprouting with petals made of stone.
