Rhymes From The Nursery 1

I had 
all the wealth
And I had
all the fame
I had all
the glamour
One life
could contain

I had 
all the friends
And I had
all the foes
That now sit
as equals
On the end
of my nose

I had
all these things
But one message
rings true
To have
and to hold
Is but folly
— adieu

(Dreamsleep: May, 2025)
