bLOND *****

I spent my life

staring down at his hair

blond and shimmering under the light of the screen.

never to see his face only the hair

his life so tough,

life on the streets,

became a ***** ,

intoxicated,

the shimmery waves

attract attention on the street

a charming photographer stops him,

you'll be big young sir

said he

the child stares up his water blue eyes welling will impassioned tears.

his life

flashed before him

nought but money and lust

A life on the surface

lies upon lies

he imagines a throne to the sky,

the impossible,

in the clouds, his hair is greasy now,

the shimmer comes from within as he wakes up

amongst friends and foes

the cost of fame
