VANITY IS A CURSE

A Poem by Bill Grimes Jr.

Astute observations

Life as I perceive it

Matters not

To those who don’t believe

It simply touches me

In ways I’ll never fully comprehend

To deeply connect

The focus of my journey

Money

Fame

Social fixation

Has never meant a s**t

Vanity is a curse

False pretense

Only fools graze in such pastures

Secrets are a cancer

Deceit

So much worse

Honesty

The toughest road in life

Regardless of consequence

Forsaking public opinion

The only true path to freedom

So be it…..
