Poem (2) - I Am Prometheus.

You take my hand and smile,

“Why don’t you stay awhile?”

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBOL5n0hQa

You smile and laugh while holding my hand,

Yet you really misunderstand.

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6azaKRcZ4s

I do not belong here,

Why can’t you see it, my dear?

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwY2ZobA8P

These people are not mine,

They all sip from fancy flutes of wine,

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1F6IqYIRAz

And they stare over the rim of their glasses,

Gaze scrutinizing, with the intent to harass.

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitK9VRGQ5O

I do not belong here,

Why can’t you hear it, my dear?

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS00U6xhcsT

These people titter and giggle, preening behind imaginary fans,

Calculating eyes, whispered promises of unacted plans.

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgo3j4OAak

They mock my clothes, my hair, my skin,

Saying “it’s too plain, such a sin.”

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiT6f37RsI

I do not belong here,

Why can’t you feel it, my dear?

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6i1hfOIyk0

The tension is thick enough to cut with a knife,

They are all hungering to ruin my life.

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIxxin0Tjr

Cameras flash, it hurts my eyes,

This party will be my reputation’s demise.

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd62hbOiMz4

I do not belong here,

But I guess you never cared, aren’t I right, my dear?

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3X59Afn7ac

You take my hand and smile,

“Why don’t you stay awhile?”

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsG1dWMKCgY

But your smile is sharp and unkind,

I was always an afterthought, two steps behind.

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfPo2DVRxy

Your grip is bruising my wrist,

“Why don’t you let me go? No? If you insist.”

I smile politely, grasping your hand,

“Dear, don’t you understand?”

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEF058N8oxu

“I don’t belong here,

But now it’s your time to fear.”

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhy219u5sX

The house is burning,

Nerves have my stomach churning.

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9B5vjryFR

But I smile and play my part in this theatrical play.

It’s their downfall, their poisonous rot leading to their own decay.

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dq3bpaLAs

The house is on fire, ashes are falling,

Your time is calling.

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyjCw5wjrw

I belong here, amidst the fire and sulfuric ash,

Not among the finely-dressed people and their camera flash.

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZead8OEd1D

I am Prometheus,

Well-versed in the language of fire, but you are only Theseus.

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ze0lztDlM

Doomed to fall, betrayed by your own,

How does it feel to be alone?

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7Pfqg8QWl

I belong amidst the ashes and fiery flame.

272Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LB3M8pfkT

A creature to behold, a monster of your creation and only yours to blame.
