theft of hope to further the self being fleeting and false
and he came flying out of
the lake
with the proudest explosion
exclamations of joy
creating waves of perversion
bright suns of greed
after soaking in the depths
of the reservoir of other's dreams
he used the tentacles of their hope
to fling him up to the sky-
now in possession of
the dreams of the dispossessed
soaked in with the
pretense of belonging
he steals off to become
what others can only hope for;
and while they continue to drown
in their unrequited dreams
he will die pretending and
never truly possessing a self.
