Belly of a Star

Rock Star

Everyone’s trying to be a rock star
They’re citing their flame
They’re playing with fire
Trimmed by the hour
Decking the halls with
Views and claimed power

Delving in
To bring out their source
The reason they think
And they think
And they state
That they are the right
And their person the good

Reclaiming in words
Regurgitation
Reclaiming in words
Regurgitation

Delightful
Fistfuls of theories
Be the millionth winner
In a game of a trillion

Dive up as a beauty
Hammer down as a vein
Throbbing with solution
Answers and games

Rows of screaming
Voices
One after one
Waving accolades
Of attention

Everyone’s trying to be a rock star
They’re citing their flame
They’re playing with fire
Trimmed by the hour
Decking the halls with
Views and claimed power
