Conductor in the public
Playing irony's symphony
A mockery that some will applaud to
And others,
They don't know what to do.

The man stayed true
Given to the nature of his taboos
Controversy middle name
Lived his life to be entertained
A game where no sides were chosen
Equally rightful,
Yet fair must be proven.

"How do you contend when there is no victor?
What would you do without a leader?"
"Unbefitting," they said
"Our approval, you certainly won't gain
This dumbest, most ethereal opinion
Could never hope to belong here."

Thus the words that find no place
Shall be acted out on his face
A poker,
Nonetheless.
