not for me

taking things as they are,
not looking for the next star
in a sky more light than dark.
not for me. not for me.
taking things a bit far,
strumming it sweet on a crisp kitar.
trying to find out how to make alabaster spark.
that is me. that is me.
a throwback, a blowback of my own petards.
an anachronistic anarchist in a house of cards.
leaving a legacy, making a mark.
we shall see. we shall see.
