<\/p>\n
You I’m told,<\/p>\n
smoke $500 cigars, only a puff or two<\/p>\n
have heads of states you don’t know, call you.<\/p>\n
……<\/p>\n
You I’m told,<\/p>\n
have kissed the Pope’s ring just a little too long<\/p>\n
him returning a wink, strong acknowledging strong.<\/p>\n
……<\/p>\n
You I’m told,<\/p>\n
own a stable full of race horses, all mares<\/p>\n
and even ride some there, only in your underwear.<\/p>\n
……<\/p>\n
You I’m told,<\/p>\n
quote Plato and even thought of buying your own republic<\/p>\n
but didn’t because an enemy said he loved it.<\/p>\n
……<\/p>\n
You I’m told,<\/p>\n
have your own heart surgeon and piss loudly<\/p>\n
in the middle of toilet bowls, like emperors of old.<\/p>\n
……<\/p>\n
You I’m told,<\/p>\n
have a tie for every day of the year and own Nero like,<\/p>\n
the mineral rights for the dark side of the moon.<\/p>\n
……<\/p>\n
You I’m told,<\/p>\n
know how many angels can dance on the head of a pin<\/p>\n
even calculating what dance they’re stepping in.<\/p>\n
……<\/p>\n
You I’m told,<\/p>\n
don’t even have a last name, like God or Donald (the duck)<\/p>\n
and have women lined up who you think, only want to fuck.<\/p>\n
……<\/p>\n
I’ve been told all this (and much, much more)<\/p>\n
so, I can only imagine how hard it must be, to be you<\/p>\n
a mere fabrication, and a second hand one too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
