Pinnacle

Problems of the Popular

Pinnacle

Grain of salt,
Shadow of doubt.
Not my fault,
Don’t dance about.

Not my issue,
Your churning mind.
Yearning answers,
That’s just fine.

Your number one,
And I`m 72.
But tell me,
Is it lonely?
Is it true?

That standing on the pinnacle,
Is depressing, upsetting.
Because everyone`s
Sitting, just staring?

Well, your rock is limestone.
And waterfalls cut it deep.
Don’t lose your footing.
Dodge your problems.

With a grin that’s meek
The Fish of the Sea.

It's lonely at the top... is there a technical name for the phobia of that? Cause I think I have it. My lack of stagefright is what makes me petrified about being in the limelight 😜
