so criminal yet delightful,
an everlasting face of foolery
words wisps upon his lips
entangled with truths masked
within lies

he is pretentious
attempts carry on as persons
so polite yet deadly
he who makes those feel centered
ignorant to the strings lifting their arms
feet dancing to the rhythm of their doom
intellect marking no boundaries

the earth beckons at his feet
the wind kisses his face
you can smell the fear in the air

the world is his kingdom
