in stone

"what a big man you are
could fight a war with just your face
take it on the chin and leave me open-jawed

what big words you've got
reciting lines you've heard on film
could write a script with just your lust for respect

rip off this face, it can't persist
like shadows in the rain, undefined lines
a symphony muted and greying
you're not real and neither are your goals"
