'An unexamined life is not worth living'--
so examine your life in full detail;
and if it lacks the depth and breadth you desire
and is nowhere near that fairy tale
Then pump some flesh of a celebrity fresh
and don't die starving off legends stale----
--Of people we should be---of people we aren't--
--Of people they cant be---of people they are.
Where he is HE, and you are also a bit of him;
and to sail through the night you have to track the star.
'Good Heavens, Don't tell us--We cant believe'
that he's not the poster that decorates our walls!
He sold himself to you one day-stock, barrel and lock;
He was captive before, but now he is free---and the Fame is in the Dock.
