Charlatan Balloon
October 18, 2013
It’s gone it its entirety
Floated away
Having once been painted
To fabricate grit
Implicate virtue
And divert the luckless acute
Of hindsight
It inflated to transparency
Full to the bursting
But still
Pointed fault on fellow floats
Ever speeding
With adopted iniquities
And what accompanies
It rose to the pinhead
And past until
Learning mercilessly
It likely burst
In the heartless sky
Its pleas disdained
And left unheard
