... losers of us all...
By PeterHunter
… losers of us all…
Peter Hunter
Power, wealth, and fame - some have it all…
… winners in God's lottery…
the beautiful, the celebrated - the acclaimed…
A King perhaps, a president - maybe a boss of all…
a legend perhaps - like Genghis, Cesar… Attila and friends
… thundering, sweeping all before…
The world at your feet…
… the millions - at your door
Great… while it lasts…
… then - desperate to preserve… frantic to survive…
… the higher we've flown…
… the further we fall…
inevitably…
… until death makes losers of us all…
End
