The Levy



And who am I
A man without identity.
As it matters not.
I've become a non-entity.

Each tries for the top.
Life can be heavy.
So, roll hopscotch.
Fly with a bevy.

Yet, who am I
Minus identity. 
Trying to keep time.
While seeking levity.
God save the unwise 
for they are many.
I'm a guy that -writes.
And I've paid the Levy.

A heavy levy, indeed, to coin a phrase. Hang in there, RJ!
