WHO WE ARE


Strutting about—

our pompous ways!

Fussing over spilt milk;

disdain for the inferior;

dusting invisible specks

off of ourselves.


We're the See-Alls 

and the Know-Alls.


After all,

didn’t the mob declare us

Fashion Beyond Fashion?


Icons in our own rights we are!


That’s what makes it so strange

that when the Creator arrives

we fade away—

mere Puppets On Strings,

playing our assigned roles after all…
