What's Right?

Orbs of trust are circling wider

Lenses set, faces in frame

Lips that quiver raw emotion

Fragile hearts cored down to shame.


Seeking s(t)inking satisfaction

Sharks smell blood and move to bite

Popping spotlight adoration

Truths twist round egos delight.


Master of all he gets his hands on

Lady in wait, body besieged

Directed toward the interactions

To boast, from high, heav’nly decree.


Eyes leap like the lemmings mourning

Those they loved who didn’t plunge

Icy cold the shards of anger

Just like that, “Pay Now!” We’ve won.


True, a heartbreak expedition

This fool’s shot is one and done

Path marked not by expectation

But the experience that comes.
