Obit

I orbit the sum
Of everyone
With blank space
In between
Starring skies
And glacial galaxies
The connectivity
Of what I mean
Link life to death
While humming
Running
Out of breath
One foot in front of the other
Like a brave soldier
Into the grave
Of a comic stand
Last night
Or a one man band
Sit tight
To give him a leg up
I give him a hand
So pause applause
On no man's land
Where people like me
With hate and thunder
What character plunder
Human blunder
I go around the sum
To see for myself
Why rhyme and reason
Beat with no drum

Greatness

Greatness To be sure My language art Replicates itself Just as Picasso Duplicates himself Without remorse Carting off the horse In a Lamborghini Filmed for the unsuspecting By Fellini Composed by classics Like Rossini In a world of comparisons I am dreamy But not without steamy thoughts Which always get me into trouble As the bubble bursts It's a fine start The illusion reveals A delusion Delivered with a mild fart As such, I must keep it to myself My greatness, it seems, must stay on the shelf Where it remains as a shining example To those who wish for a stardom burst Stand with those merely ample
