The Golden Obstacle


Picture provided by: www.dreamstime.com








Oh sweet golden one he is


Or who he’s said to be

He acts as though

He wants not the center 

Of attention 

That he so diligently seeks


Could it be the fond reminders

Of what life used to be?

That brings him back

To a place where ”he”

Is all they could ever see?


No!

No.... Not him,

He holds no claim to arrogance

Nor does he live in doubt

That everyone’s feigned attention 

Is what he can live without


It does not matter

If it’s real

So long as he can be

The place where their devotion 

Lies, 

Pouring over in loving streams


To be the obstacle 

Of his own delusions,

Not soon realizing 

He doesn’t hold the axis

Of which their world does spin

Too busy looking inward

To be aware of the reality he’s standing in


All things great or small

Seem to point back to him

In his mind

What other way is there to be?

A golden obstacle 

Has been his crown

Holding too tightly for release
