They are not real
They are acting
They are all pretending
Nobody is looking
But everybody’s watching
You don’t know them
You never will
Your storyline is set
Don’t go in for the ****
Don’t try to find out
It makes them angry
Don’t try and meet the horizon
It isn’t real
Nothing is real
It is for their entertainment
That you were born
It was all planned
It was all staged
I repeat. They are pretending.
You’ll never be free.

watching purported heads of state
stage their pr shows on their national television
aired internationally
for very obvious purposes
makes you wonder
whether these so-called politicians
really believe they speak to total idiots
or have just lost the ground under their feet
in the end, though,
*** do I worry
the results are the same

Behind all his smiles and silly gestures
He longs to walk a thousand miles away
He desires to escape from everyday
No more small talk
Or large gatherings
The curtain has CLOSED
A contemporary task.
**In the eyes of the crowd
All they see is the proud facade
Entertainment is important
And all they care about
Forgetting the person
behind the PERSONA
a temporary mask.**
As his mask fades
Rabbits shift
into sparrows
No light at the end
Only cued applauds
Some flowers
And skewed imagery
An exemplary stage.
**Disappearing into the night
Unmasking the illusions he conjured.
The sinking reality comes back
As
Lingering
Silence echoes his longing…
A price to pay of the famed gift
Hoping this will be his last...**
