The Writer

He hides his wisdom beneath his thick glasses He uses his pen to say what he knows He conceal himself with his infamous words of what he understands nobody could comprehend He barely speaks For he stammers a lot But he read so much So he could tell He has this blanket To cover his frail body Who could responds to facts And withdraws data His wicked wit An envious one He knows a lot But possesses nothing The curve of his eyebrows He questions a lot The eyes of this beast Crushes your ignorance His pathetic jaws Displays no elegance But the color of his lips Could define your existence He perceives a lot but not himself His eloquent tongue could change your stand His grotesque features Is the uncertainty of his integrity For people believe The superficial reality He looks dumb And you act smart You laugh at him He doesn't mind You see yourself As the face of success He shrugged his shoulder As he creates you #

I see myself as successful not the face of success there's a difference but this person man you're speaking of seems to be oblivious to everything. You really created a character.
