Telltale Reality

CATEGORY

The ego of fantasy

is as dangerously destructive

as is the reality of a ballistic missile.

 

The ego fantasy of the Prince of Evil

being played out on the stage

of our lives continues to rail real dangers

upon us, the audience, rather than the players

who sit mesmerized by it all.

 

With commanding stage presence,

Wielding the debasing sword of apathy,

the chief protagonist continues to spellbound

his unaware participating audience,

stoically shedding tears of disgusted disbelief.

 

Such a Shakespearian-like tragedy;

void of exits and entrances, yet replete

with the one man playing his many parts:

“…Seeking the bubble reputation…

[with his]…cannon’s mouth…” 

 

Act Two: Scene One:  When will reality

subdue fantasy and actions, apathy?

Pray to tell, audience; to coming telltale reality.
