Staged Lives

Staged Lives

Does it really matter?
Picture of perfection!
Narcissisms largest platter
Images which breed rejection.
Overwhelming need to disengage
Good are the so called deeds
Just for life's ambiguous stage,
Bring forth the live feeds!
Causing reasoned shame
In envy's first little bite
looking for unknown blame
Falling from immense height
Bloodlusting greed
In hopes of a ‘like’
Hell falls with speed
You're Nailed to a spike.
Stain now varnished
headfirst you now go
Forever tarnished
Bring on the next blow.

Bloodlusting greed

Hell falls with speed
You're Nailed to a spike.

Funny, wry and tightly written.
You make your point with a tiny bit of acid on the blade...as evidenced by the above-quoted lines.

I love it...and you.

Hi Tony, Hahah...Yes I felt it apt at the minute..... As you know I absolutely love Dali, and this image really felt fitting as it kind of represented (to me) the way in which social media can change something beautiful for its own self promotion....Yet Dali himself sold out on many occasions to I thought he wouldn't mind too much hahaha
thank you for your comment I am glad you enjoyed this one
