So quick to suck up to them
To assert their greatness
While making them out to be
As untouchable as those you'd like to dethrone
What is it you see in them?
What narrow corridor of their lives do you describe
Peeking in their open window?
How well do you really know anyone
To judge their impact
Wishes, dreams, desires.
He knows his testimony is carefully scrutinized
Letting you hang around like all the others
Polite and friendly, conversive to a fault
Philosophical discourse is appreciated;
The record is tainted.
Hear what you want to hear
Pencil idle
Pencil flying
It all means something to hungry suspicion
Eager opportunists and contemplative minds.
To not feel alone
To feel important
To feel deliciously privy
Alienate those you idolize.
As if it matters.
Ask your own questions
Speak for yourself
And don't believe everything you read.

I'm going to will it to my children.
I understand what you mean in it... and it's an amazing thing, noteriety and fame; the more people want to know you, the less they know YOU.
I know I don;t know you and Fossil worth a damn... but I'd like to think I know enough to consider you, what I call, Good People. (*Smile*) And I'm honoured to know what I do already.
