Astute observations Life as I perceive it Matters not To those who don’t believe It simply touches me In ways I’ll never fully comprehend To deeply connect The focus of my journey Money Fame Social fixation Has never meant a shit Vanity is a curse False pretense Only fools graze in such pastures Secrets are a cancer Deceit So much worse Honesty The toughest road in life Regardless of consequence Forsaking public opinion The only true path to freedom So be it….. © Bill Grimes Jr. 2009
