Got What He Wanted

Steven with a V but stoned nonetheless
He never did well in captivity

Commercial failure critical success
Not good for much except for poetry

Practicing daily his eyes on the prize
With perfectionistic avidity

And some new bullies to bring down to size

His house not before but now is haunted
So in the end he got what he wanted

Very interesting piece here Steven with a V...
And from what I have read of yours so far...this is a summary of you in the most creative simplicity...
Keep doing what your doing and 'Oneday", when the back of the tapestry is tying its last knot, and you turn it over...the masters piece will all make sense...You have a purpose in your drive and a haunting ability to keep the beast at bay...Love and Peace~
