Sophistry! You solipsist.
You singular charlatan-savant.
You're the *****.
You're the best at sinking deep
Into the thick steaming ****--
One day you'll wash on the beach.

Of another man's eye you'll be seen.
A wretched, fated thing-- scoffed at you'll be.

You are the woman you long for
Chasing your tail
In love with yourself
Never, never, no--
A man-- the greatest ever
But forget it all, forget it in fever.

Dash it all down and scrape her off your skin
Carry that on your back
That is a man
And this
in fact
Is the Final Act--
greatest ever = it's now
